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

Giant cell arteritis (GCA) is a difficult diagnosis to make in the emergency department, requiring a temporal artery biopsy to confirm the disease. Here, we present a case of GCA diagnosed on bedside ultrasound in a patient with left-sided temporal pain, left-sided blurry vision, and a normal erythrocyte sedimentation rate. Of note, this patient was on anticoagulation for atrial fibrillation, which delayed a biopsy from being performed, making the ultrasound findings even more significant. This case study suggests that bedside ultrasound can be utilized in the diagnosis of GCA, offering a quick, easy, and safe imaging modality that is available in many emergency departments.
