Prognostic factors for spontaneous spinal epidural hematoma: a multicenter case-control study.
Article in Acta neurochirurgica, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
backgroundTo determine the optimal treatment for spontaneous spinal epidural hematoma (SSEH). The aim of this study was to identify factors associated with SSEH.
methodsIn 62 patients with SSEH, several patient-related parameters were analyzed as candidate factors associated with Frankel grade before treatment or at the last follow-up. These parameters were compared between patients with and without surgery. In addition, multivariate ordinal logistic regression analysis was used to identify factors significantly associated with Frankel's grade before treatment or at the last follow-up.
resultsThere were significant differences in age, location of the hematoma, and Frankel grade before treatment and at the last follow-up between surgical and nonsurgical cases in all patients, but there were no significant differences in any of these parameters when comparing patients with pre-treatment Frankel grade C. The location of the hematoma was significantly associated with the severity of paralysis before treatment. In surgical cases, the time from onset to surgery and the location of the hematoma was significantly associated with the prognosis. When the time from onset to surgery was evaluated using the criteria of 12, 24, and 48 h, 24 and 48 h had a significant impact on the prognosis. In the analysis of nonsurgical cases, only the vertical size of the hematoma was significantly associated with prognosis.
conclusionThe time from onset to surgery and the location of the hematoma were prognostic factors in surgical cases, while the vertical size of the hematoma was a prognostic factor in nonsurgical cases.
