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

In this paper, I review the historical changes in the etiological concepts and surgical treatments for chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH) across the world and in Japan. I also examine future problems associated with its surgical procedures and medical costs. CSDH was first reported by Wepfer in 1657 as "delayed apoplexy." In 1857, Virchow described the famous concept of so-called "pachymeningitis hemorrhagica interna." He considered that the etiology of CSDH involved inflammation. In 1914, Trotter described the origin of CSDH as traumatic. Currently, CSDH is considered to arise with a first leak of blood from dural border cells after mild trauma. Inflammatory cells are then drawn to the border cell layer. At this point, new membranes form from activated inflammation; then, the hematoma enlarges, promoted by angiogenic factors and new capillaries. In 1883, Hulke reported successful trepanning of a patient with CSDH. Burr holes and craniotomy for removal of the hematoma were subsequently reported, and new methods were developed over the course of several decades around the world. In Japan, after the first report by Nakada in 1938, many Japanese pioneering figures of neurological surgery have studied CSDH. After Mandai reported the middle meningeal artery embolization in 2000, this method is now considered useful as an initial or second treatment for CSDH. However, the age of patients is increasing, so more minimally invasive surgeries and useful pharmacotherapies are needed. We must also consider the costs for treating CSDH, because of the increasing numbers of surgical cases.
