Characteristics of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage associated with rheumatic disease.
Article in Neurosurgical review, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
Spontaneous subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) occurs due to intracranial aneurysm rupture in most cases. Rheumatic disease may cause vessel wall inflammation, which can increase the risk of rupture. However, the characteristics of SAH with rheumatic disease are unknown. This study aimed to evaluate SAH features in patients with rheumatic disease. We retrospectively analyzed clinical data of 5066 patients from the Nagasaki SAH Registry Study who had been diagnosed with aneurysmal SAH between 2001 and 2018. We evaluated the SAH characteristics in patients with rheumatic disease using multivariable logistic regression analysis. In total, 102 patients (2.0%, 11 men and 91 women, median age 69.0 [57.0-75.5]) had rheumatic disease. In these patients, univariate logistic regression analysis showed that sex, hypertension, family history of SAH, smoking history, World Federation of Neurosurgical Societies grade on admission, aneurysm size, multiple aneurysms, treatment, and symptomatic spasms were associated with SAH. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that characteristics independently associated with SAH in rheumatic disease were female sex (odds ratio [OR] 3.38; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.81-6.93, P < 0.001), hypertension (OR 0.60; 95% CI 0.40-0.90, P = 0.012), family history of SAH (OR 0.18; 95% CI 0.01-0.80, P = 0.020), small ruptured aneurysms (OR 1.50; 95% CI 1.02-2.24, P = 0.048), and multiple aneurysms (OR 1.69; 95% CI 1.09-2.58, P = 0.021) in comparison with SAH without rheumatic disease. In conclusion, SAH in patients with rheumatic disease was characterized by small multiple aneurysms, regardless of the low incidence of hypertension and family history of SAH.
