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

Chylomicronemia has either a monogenic or multifactorial origin. Multifactorial chylomicronemia is the more common form and is due to the interaction of genetic predisposition and secondary factors such as obesity, diabetes, unhealthy diet, and medications. We report a case of a 38-year-old man who was diagnosed with multifactorial chylomicronemia following presentation with a subarachnoid hemorrhage requiring emergency surgery through a burr hole; lactescent cerebrospinal fluid mixed with blood was observed through the burr hole. The serum triglyceride concentration was 52⋅4 mmol/L with a detectable triglyceride concentration in the cerebrospinal fluid. Rapid weight gain leading to obesity and related unfavorable lifestyle factors were identified as key secondary causes of chylomicronemia. Gene testing revealed a homozygous variant in
