Possible association between minor head injury and intratumoral hemorrhage: A metastatic brain tumor from thyroid carcinoma.

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
A 78-year-old woman presented after a fall and injury in the left forehead. She had undergone surgery for papillary thyroid carcinoma 14 years prior and breast carcinoma 7 years prior. The patient had exhibited uneventful postoperative courses without relapse or metastasis. Anticoagulants or antiplatelet agents were not prescribed her. At presentation, the patient exhibited no focal neurological deficits. Computed tomography revealed a 19 × 20 mm hemorrhagic lesion in the right temporal lobe. On cerebral magnetic resonance imaging, the center of the lesion exhibited inhomogeneous intensity on both T1- and T2-weighted sequences with heterogeneous enhancement. In contrast, the perilesional hemorrhagic regions, appearing hyperintense on both T1- and T2-weighted sequences, showed temporary regression followed by marked enlargement over the subsequent 123 days. The patient underwent total tumor resection. The microscopic findings of the resected specimens were consistent with papillary thyroid carcinoma. Minor head injuries may trigger intratumoral hemorrhage in metastatic brain tumors. Metastasis should be assumed when patients with a history of thyroid carcinoma present with a solitary parenchymal lesion with the appearance of cerebral cavernous malformation, even if they have been disease free for a long period.
