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

Thunderclap headache is a medical emergency presented as the worst headache ever, is characterised by an abrupt onset and maximal intensity within seconds to minutes. However, cerebrovascular causes are among the most common causes of thunderclap headache, and other non-vascular life-threatening aetiologies should be considered in evaluating a patient. We describe a 23-year-old previously healthy Latino woman who presented to our hospital after a month of repetitive severe, abrupt-onset headaches. Her prior medical history was unremarkable. After a normal brain MRI with angio-MRI, a lumbar puncture was performed with normal opening pressure, hypoglycorrhachia, increased proteins and a leucocyte; India ink staining was positive for encapsulated yeast, cultures were positive for
