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

Extra-axial developmental venous anomalies (DVAs) are important anatomic structures that contribute to supplemental venous drainage of intracranial contents into the extracranial veins. We present the case of a 35-year-old woman with a sudden-onset severe headache, nausea, and vomiting who was found to have an atraumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage of left frontal convexity. Workup revealed a large anomalous extra-axial vein originating in the right frontal area, traversing the left frontal region, penetrating the left frontal bone just above the supraorbital foramen with likely drainage into the left external jugular vein. This vein could not be classified as an emissary vein given the lack of direct communication with the superior sagittal sinus anterior portion, which was found to be hypoplastic. This case report adds to the literature a description of a previously unreported midline traversing frontal extra-axial vein directly draining frontal lobes with a potential implication in an atraumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage of frontal convexity.
