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

backgroundCerebral hemorrhage secondary to cerebral embolism after mechanical thrombectomy is characterized by high morbidity, disability and mortality. If the patient also has severe pulmonary embolism (PE) at the same time, the treatment becomes more complex. This report describes the treatment strategy for a patient with PE and cerebral hemorrhage secondary to cerebral embolism after mechanical thrombectomy. CASE SUMMARY: A 70-year-old woman presented to our emergency department with right-sided hemiplegia and mixed aphasia of 2.5 h duration. She was diagnosed with left cerebral embolism, left internal carotid artery occlusion, PE and left calf intramuscular vein thrombosis. Following mechanical thrombectomy, brain magnetic resonance imaging showed cerebral infarction with basal ganglia hemorrhage. We observed changes in cerebral hemorrhage on serial monitoring of brain computed tomography and adjusted the dose of anticoagulant drugs. After 3 wk of treatment, the patient's neurological and respiratory symptoms significantly improved, and a favorable prognosis was obtained.

conclusionAnticoagulation could be a potential option for PE accompanied by hemorrhagic transformation of an ischemic infarct.
