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

Cardiovascular manifestations like bradycardia, hypotension, fluctuation of blood pressure, and supraventricular arrhythmia are common in acute spinal cervical injury above the C6 level and are the major cause of mortality and morbidity in them. Ventricular tachycardia (VT) and fibrillation have only been reported in a few cases, but polymorphic VT (PMVT) has not been reported. We report a very rare case of acute cervical spinal cord injury patient who developed PMVT in the setting of normal QT interval degenerating to ventricular fibrillation, causing cardiac arrest before surgery.
