Spinal Epidural Hematoma: A Case Series and the Current Paradigm.
Article in Cureus, 2024. 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
Spinal epidural hematoma (SEH) is a rare but serious condition characterized by the accumulation of blood in the spinal epidural space. As SEH progresses, it can result in permanent damage or paralysis if not treated promptly. We report three cases of SEH: one spontaneous and two traumatic. Timely diagnosis and intervention led to favorable outcomes, with significant neurological recovery in all cases. Minimizing the extent of laminectomy in evacuating the SEH reduced the likelihood of post-laminectomy kyphosis while avoiding the need for spinal instrumentation. More research is required to optimize the treatment protocols for SEH and further improve patient outcomes.
