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 case of intracranial abscesses development in a patient with head and neck cancer after emergent treatment of carotid blowout syndrome with coil embolization. Our patient is a 60-year-old male who presented with hemoptysis and hematemesis, which raised concerns for impending carotid blowout syndrome. Endovascular occlusion was successfully achieved, and the patient was discharged in stable condition. Ten days later, the patient reported headaches and right facial pain, and magnetic resonance imaging revealed multiple intracranial abscesses. Broad-spectrum intravenous antibiotics were administered, leading to a variable response with some abscesses decreasing in size and others increasing. Seven weeks from discharge, the patient had no neurological deficits, and all abscesses had decreased in size.
