The Outcomes of Traumatic Acute Subdural Hematoma in a Tertiary Center in Abuja, Nigeria.
Article in Cureus, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers.
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.
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
Background Acute traumatic subdural hematoma is life-threatening and is associated with high unfavorable outcomes in developing countries. Objective We aim to identify factors contributing to outcomes after severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) due to acute subdural hematoma (SDH) in patients admitted to National Hospital Abuja, Nigeria. Methods This was a retrospective review of 34 patients who consecutively underwent neurosurgery for acute SDH over five years (from January 2015 to December 2019). Demographic data, clinical characteristics, and the time intervals from injury to surgery were investigated to determine the interactions between all these factors and outcome. Outcome was graded according to the Glasgow outcome scale at the three-month follow-up. Results Out of 34 patients who had surgical evacuation for traumatic acute subdural hematoma, 15 patients died (44.1%). A significant correlation was identified between outcome and the Glasgow coma scale score at admission. No significant correlation was seen between the outcome and the age, gender and the time from injury to surgery (chi
