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

backgroundPoor-grade aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) has been associated with severe morbidity and high mortality. It has been demonstrated that early intervention is of paramount importance. The aim of our study is to evaluate the functional outcome and the overall survival of early microsurgically treated patients. MATERIAL AND

methodsPoor-grade aSAH patients admitted at our institution over fifteen years (January 2008 - December 2022) were included in our retrospective study. All participants underwent brain Computed Tomography Angiography (CTA). Fisher scale was used to assess the severity of hemorrhage. All our study participants underwent microsurgical clipping, and their functional outcome was assessed with the Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS). We used logistic regression analysis to identify any parameters associated with a favorable outcome at 12 months. Cox proportional hazard analysis was also performed, identifying factors affecting the length of survival.

resultsOur study included 39 patients with a mean age of 54 years. Thirty of our participants (76.9%) were Hunt and Hess grade V, while the vast majority (94.9%) were Fisher grade 4. The observed six-month mortality rate was 48.6%. The mean follow-up time was 18.6 months. The functional outcome at six months was favorable in 6 patients (16.2%), increased to 23.5% at 12 months. Our data analysis showed that the age, as well as the employment of temporary clipping during surgery, affected the overall outcome.

conclusionManagement of poor-grade aSAH patients has been dramatically changed. Microsurgical clipping provides promising results in carefully selected younger patients.
