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

Background: Hemorrhagic lesions of the septum pellucidum are rare and usually occur in neonates. They can be due to a number of etiologies. Here, we report a rare case of adolescent nontraumatic septum pellucidum hemorrhage with a review of literature. Case Description: A 16-year-old girl presented with a 1-month history of gradual visual deterioration in the left eye, intermittent headache, and vomiting. Brain imaging showed hematoma located between the leaflets of the septum pellucidum with obstructive hydrocephalus. Transcallosal resection of interventricular mass was done. The patient was discharged with improved neurological symptoms; however, the left eye vision did not recover. Imaging demonstrated a unique anatomical variant in deep vascular structures. Conclusion: Cavum septum pellucidum hemorrhage is rare in adults. Many theories were constructed to explain its etiology. Bleeding due a vascular anatomical variant was not previously encountered. Understanding the embryological origin and anatomical details are important for proper clinical assessment and management of these patients.
