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

Although penetrating brain injury is rare, it is associated with high morbidity and mortality. In several studies, even if very few patients arrive at the hospital alive, half of them eventually die, and the other half have significant neurological sequelae. Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leakage caused by traumatic brain injury is common. Therefore, we should be aware of the complications, prognosis, and follow-up strategies of penetrating brain injuries. A 55-year-old man was brought to our hospital with diffuse cerebral contusion and skull fracture. Three weeks after successful surgery, the patient returned with a large amount of pneumocephalus and pneumoventricle caused by delayed CSF leakage. Fortunately, the patient was discharged without neurological deficits after reoperation. In the urgent situation of penetrating brain injury, the treatment and prognosis vary depending on the initial actions and clinical factors. In addition, we should be aware that a variety of complications, as well as CSF leakage, can occur in patients with penetrating brain injuries.
