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

We report a patient with a symptomatic intraluminal internal carotid artery thrombus clinically revealed by cerebral infarction. In the preoperative evaluation, it was revealed that essential thrombocythemia existed in the background. Therefore, medical treatment with antithrombotic agents in conjunction with hydroxycarbamide for essential thrombocythemia was initiated, but the thrombus was not dissolved by three weeks. At this time, the patient underwent carotid endarterectomy, which removed the thrombus completely with its adjacent plaque without any perioperative stroke. The possibility of essential thrombocythemia may also be kept in mind when an increased platelet count is observed in patients with internal carotid artery thrombus. It is a reasonable option to precede medical treatment, including anticoagulant therapy, by setting the time limit for surgical intervention in such a disease state.
