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

We report a rare case of cardioembolic stroke in the setting of supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) in an infant. After a week of irritability, a 10-week-old male presented to the emergency department with SVT requiring treatment with adenosine. He developed right-sided hemiparesis and focal motor seizures. Imaging of the brain showed ischemic infarct in the left middle cerebral artery (MCA) territory. Echocardiogram showed a newly formed large left atrial intracardiac thrombus. A coagulopathy workup was negative. He was treated with beta-blocker and anticoagulation therapy. He had mild residual right hemiparesis. During childhood, he developed medically refractory focal epilepsy from the left hemisphere, requiring epilepsy surgery at age 10. A child presenting with sustained SVT can be at increased risk for intracardiac thrombi and stroke.
