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

backgroundIntracystic hematoma in arachnoid cyst are a very rare pathology that commonly occurs after head trauma, while spontaneous intracystic hematomas in arachnoid cyst associated with subdural hematoma is extremely rare. Currently there are 33 patients of spontaneous intracystic hematomas in arachnoid cyst reported in the literature. In this case report we present an adult patient with concomitant chronic subdural hematoma with intracystic hematoma in arachnoid cyst. CASE PRESENTATION: A 19-year-old Egyptian Arabian female patient presented to the outpatient clinic complaining of severe headache of 1-month duration that was progressive in nature. Provisionally, it was thought that it might be an arachnoid cyst with associated chronic subdural hematoma along with intracystic hematoma. Decision to proceed with craniotomy and cyst evacuation was made.

conclusionConcomitant intracystic hematoma in arachnoid cyst along with subdural hematoma is a serious condition that might be life-threatening if not well managed.
