1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Pregnancy and puerperium are known conditions associated with venous thrombotic events, which may present atypically in cases such as cerebral venous thrombosis. Since these are uncommon events, there is a paucity of reports and protocols for the management of these patients, resulting in no clear consensus in the literature. We report a case of a woman, nine weeks pregnant, who developed thrombosis of the right transverse and superior sagittal sinuses. Our diagnosis was made with computed tomography angiography, and due to a significant midline shift, an emergency decompressive hemicraniectomy was required. Although medical and surgical therapies for intracranial hypertension and anticoagulation were optimized in accordance with current medical literature, the patient suffered a spontaneous abortion and remained with significant neurological sequelae.
