Effect of decreased platelets on postoperative recurrence of chronic subdural hematoma.
Article in Frontiers in neurology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Introduction: Chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH) is commonly treated using simple burr hole surgery. However, postoperative recurrence occurs at a relatively high rate of 10-20%. A decrease in platelet count (PC) may be associated with recurrence via a hemostasis disorder; however, this association has not been well-studied. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the association between PC and postoperative CSDH recurrence. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the data for CSDHs in 488 cerebral hemispheres of 431 patients who underwent burr hole surgery at our institution between January 2013 and December 2022. The association between preoperative PC and postoperative CSDH recurrence was investigated. We used the first quartile of PC, PC < 170 × 10 Results: In total, 459 cerebral hemispheres with CSDHs in 405 patients were followed up postoperatively for at least 3 months or until CSDH disappeared. CSDH recurred in 39 (8.5%) cerebral hemispheres. The recurrence rate was gradually increased in parallel with a decreasing PC. Among 109 CSDHs with a decreased PC (<170 × 10 Conclusion: Our study showed that a decrease in PC was associated with postoperative CSDH recurrence. Patients with CSDH and a decreased PC require careful postoperative follow-up.
