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

backgroundTraumatic cerebrovascular injury may result in epidural hematoma (EDH) from laceration of the middle meningeal artery (MMA), which is a potentially life-threatening emergency. Treatment ranges from surgical evacuation to conservative management based on a variety of clinical and imaging factors. CASE DESCRIPTION: A 14-year-old male presented to our institution after falling from his bicycle with traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage and a right frontotemporal EDH. The patient did not meet criteria for surgical evacuation and endovascular embolization of the right MMA was performed. Rapid resolution of the EDH was observed.

conclusionThis case corroborates the sparse existing literature for the potential role of endovascular embolization to treat acute EDH in carefully selected patients who do not meet or have borderline indications for surgical management.
