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

Hypertension is the most common cause of posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) and acute cerebral infarction. Due to the lack of randomized controlled clinical trials (RCTs), early antihypertensive methods are diverse, even contradictory. So far, there is no consensus on the method of blood pressure (BP) management when the 2 diseases coexist. Generally, antihypertensive therapy should be initiated quickly in the acute phase of PRES, as most patients have elevated BP. However, various factors must be considered before the administration of early antihypertensive therapy in acute cerebral infarction. The coexistence of PRES and acute cerebral infarction is uncommon clinically, and more complicated subsequent BP management. This article reports a case of PRES coexisting with acute lacunar cerebral infarction, which was caused by hypertension. We have analyzed and summarized the antihypertensive principles in PRES and different phases of acute cerebral ischemic injury. We assert that when PRES and acute cerebral infarction coexist, the antihypertensive treatment should be individualized, and careful consideration should be given to the various influencing factors.
