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

Foreign body embolization can cause intracranial artery occlusion with ischemic stroke. Reported etiologies include post cerebrovascular interventions, migration of esophageal foreign body and neck trauma. We reported a case with punctured wound at left neck, X-ray and computed tomography revealed a foreign body located in the carotid region. The patient eventually developed stroke symptoms in the next day after operation. Non-contrast brain Computer tomography at that time revealed that porcelain fragment located at the suprasellar area, and infarction of the left anterior basal ganglion. Our patient is the first reported case having an embolic stroke secondary to distal migration of a foreign body from the carotid artery after neck trauma. We call attention to this rare neurologic complication of neck trauma with foreign body retention. Appropriate and prompt identification of concurrent vascular injuries with retention of foreign body is strongly advised in neck trauma patients.
