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

abstractTo determine the prognostic risk factors of patients with acute epidural hematoma (AEDH), a scoring system was established based on gray-white matter ratio (GWR) and internal verification was performed.All patients with AEDH who underwent surgical treatment in Qinghai Provincial People's Hospital from January 2013 to June 2019 were continuously collected. The clinical and imaging data of the patients were collected. According to Glasgow Outcome Scale at 3 months after operation, the patients were divided into poor and good prognosis groups, respectively. The GWR value of the nonhematoma side was measured at the inner capsule area. Univariate and multivariate analyses were used. Independent predictors significantly related to the prognosis of AEDH were screened out and a nomogram was established based on these factors.A total of 170 cases were included in this study, the Glasgow Coma Score (severe and moderate), cerebral hernia, midline shift, preoperative GWR, postoperative GWR, hematoma thickness/midline shift, time from coma to surgery, and decompression of bone flap were the independent risk factors for predicting the poor prognosis of AEDH. Moreover, the prediction ability of nomogram was higher than any other independent predictive factors.The nomogram model established represents the most effective factor to predict the prognosis of operated AEDH. The scoring system is characterized by high accuracy, simplicity and feasibility, with a wide range of clinical application prospects.
