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

Spontaneous craniocervical dissection is one of the main causes of stroke in juvenile and middle-aged patients. It is caused by intramural hematoma which may result in stenosis or even occlusion of the artery. Clinical manifestation varies from local pain to ischemic complications. The imaging modality of choice is magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) which is able to detect all characteristic signs of dissection. Intramural hematoma is detected with thin slice fat-saturated 3D black-blood images. However, with the use of special imaging techniques, questionable findings can be clarified and especially the more difficult to detect intradural dissection can be accurately diagnosed. Acute treatment depends on the severity of neurological symptoms and their duration. Factors like the location of the dissection, cerebral infarction or hemorrhage influence the choice of medication for primary and secondary prophylaxis. Resorption of the intramural hematoma often leads to spontaneous recanalization within a few months.
