Bilateral Frontoparietotemporal Craniectomy for Traumatic Brain Injury: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
There is no conclusive agreement on the optimal approach to managing severe traumatic brain injury. This article details the methodology and outcomes of bilateral frontoparietotemporal decompression surgery performed on a three-year-old patient with severe traumatic brain injury. As the patient had fixed dilated pupils, GCS (Glasgow coma scale) 4, and marked edema in the frontal and parietal regions, the Kjellberg approach was modified, and decompression including part of the parietal bone was performed. The patient was intubated and sedated in the intensive care unit for one week postoperatively. After extubation, the patient had reactive pupils and a GCS of 13. The patient underwent a cranioplasty two months after the trauma, combining the bone grafts placed in the abdomen. The patient was followed for three days after cranioplasty and discharged with a GCS:15 and intact motor examination.
