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

Stroke continues to be a major public health issue resulting in high mortality and severe long-term disability. Carotid endarterectomy (CEA) plays an important role in the prevention of ischemic stroke. Complications associated with CEA can be life threatening and prompt recognition is crucial. In this report, we present a patient who presented to the hospital with progressive headache, 2 weeks following CEA. He was neurologically intact and hypertensive. Non-contrast head computed tomography (CT) scan showed convexity subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). He was found to have a left internal carotid artery dissection. Patients who present to the hospital following CEA with headache and hypertension benefit from a non-contrast head CT scan. The presence of SAH can be a warning sign of cerebral hyperperfusion syndrome. Carotid artery dissection is also a disease entity that can occur in the post-operative period. Prompt recognition and treatment is crucial for the management of these disease entities.
