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

Remote intracerebral hemorrhage (RICH) is a rare yet highly consequential complication that can occur after a craniotomy performed for the evacuation of an intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). In this case report, we present the clinical details of a 74-year-old female patient who underwent a supratentorial craniotomy to address an ICH, and subsequently developed RICH. A 74-year-old woman was admitted to our department with a severe headache, onset of dysarthria, and left-sided brachio-crural hemiparesis. The patient had a history of arterial hypertension and a previous cerebral ischemia incident 2 years prior, potentially due to cerebral amyloid angiopathy. Despite the immediate surgical intervention and intensive care, she succumbed to respiratory distress after developing a contralateral ICH. RICH following craniotomy for an intracerebral hematoma is a rare but potentially devastating complication. Close monitoring, prompt recognition of neurological deterioration, and timely intervention are imperative to optimize patient outcomes. Further research is needed to better understand the underlying mechanisms and risk factors associated with this complication, allowing for improved prevention and management strategies in the future.
