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

Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) is the complete or partial occlusion of the main venous sinuses or cortical veins. The most known risk factors are oral contraceptives, pregnancy, thrombophilias, malignancy and infections. The SARS-CoV-2 infection has been associated with a hypercoagulable state and there are some reported cases of CVST in SARS-CoV-2 patients. Although infection is one of the possible causes of CVST, it is important to rule out malignancy. We report a case of a 27-year-old male, with a recent SARS-CoV-2 infection, who went to the emergency department for a severe left occipital headache and was diagnosis with CVST. An etiological study revealed a retroperitoneal mass, compatible with a paraganglioma.
