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

backgroundTerson syndrome is the phenomenon of intraocular hemorrhage in the setting of subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Vision loss can lead to morbidity for the affected individual. Aneurysmal SAH related to intracranial aneurysms is rare in children. Studies have shown the incidence of Terson syndrome in adults with aneurysmal SAH to be over 40%; however, few cases of Terson syndrome in pediatric aneurysmal SAH have been reported. OBSERVATIONS: A 9-year-old male presented with altered mental status and seizures. Computed tomographic angiography showed aneurysmal SAH from a ruptured, left-sided posterior inferior cerebellar artery aneurysm. The patient underwent endovascular treatment with coiling and external ventricular drainage for SAH. Ophthalmological consultation for blurry vision revealed the diagnosis of Terson syndrome with decreased vision in the left eye, which was managed conservatively. LESSONS: Terson syndrome after SAH can occur in children. Prompt ophthalmological evaluation in pediatric patients with aneurysmal SAH is vital for recognition and management to decrease overall morbidity.
