Efficacy of neuroendoscopic and small-bone-window craniotomy microsurgery for hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage: a meta-analysis of Chinese RCT studies.
Synthesis in Frontiers in neurology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Objective: To compare the clinical efficacy of neuroendoscopy and small-bone-window craniotomy microsurgery in the treatment of supratentorial hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage. Methods: A search was conducted for Chinese randomized controlled trials on neuroendoscopy and small-bone-window craniotomy microsurgery treatment of hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage published before February 1, 2024, in PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang Data, and China Science and Technology Journal Database. Meta-analysis was performed using Review Manager 5.4 software. Results: We included 9 randomized controlled trials, with 391 cases in the neuroendoscopy group and 403 cases in the craniotomy group. The meta-analysis results showed that compared to the small-bone-window craniotomy group, the neuroendoscopy group had a higher rate of hematoma clearance (95% CI [6.65, 18.52], Conclusion: Compared with small-bone-window craniotomy microsurgery, neuroendoscopic surgery for episodic hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage resulted in a higher rate of hematoma clearance, less intraoperative bleeding, shorter operative time, fewer days in the ICU, a lower rate of postoperative complications and a lower 3-month postoperative NIHSS score, and a higher ADL score.
