Spontaneous Bilateral Basal Ganglia Hemorrhage Due to Severe Hypertension.
Article in Vascular health and risk management, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Introduction: The basal ganglia, which comprise many subcortical nuclei, constitute an integrated functional unit of the brain. Spontaneous hemorrhage of the basal ganglia is mostly unilateral and secondary to uncontrolled hypertension. Simultaneous bilateral basal ganglia hemorrhage (SBBGH) is very rare. So far, only 40 cases have been documented so far. Case Presentation: Here, we report a 37-year-old man with a past medical history of uncontrolled hypertension who was brought to the emergency department due to severe headache, worsening confusion, and right-sided weakness for 2 days. An urgent non-contrast brain CT performed immediately revealed bilateral intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) of the same age in the basal ganglia. On admission, blood pressure was 220/120. Other vital signs were normal. The patient was admitted to the ICU, IV antihypertensive and antiedema medications were given. After clinical improvement, he was transferred to the neurology ward on the fifth day. After another 5 days in the neurology inpatient ward, the patient clinically improved and was referred to the rehabilitation department. Conclusion: Due to the rarity of SBBGH, it is particularly interesting to report this remarkable case of a man with simultaneous spontaneous bilateral ganglia hemorrhage secondary to uncontrolled hypertension.
