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 a 50-year-old woman in which contrast-enhanced fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) was used for the diagnosis of idiopathic cerebrospinal fluid rhinorrhea. The pre- and postcontrast FLAIR subtraction images showed a contrasted protrusion of the right olfactory cleft canal, highlighting the potential practicality and effectiveness of using pre- and postcontrast FLAIR subtraction images in diagnosing idiopathic cerebrospinal fluid rhinorrhea, in conjunction with conventional high-resolution computed tomography and magnetic resonance cisternography. The successful diagnosis of cerebrospinal fluid rhinorrhea allowed for treatment through endoscopic nasal surgery to close the fistula with a positive clinical outcome.
