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

Persistent occipital sinus with absent/ hypoplastic bilateral transverse sinus is an extremely rare finding in adults; less than 10 cases have been reported. We present a case of a 28-year-old male who was brought to the emergency department in a post-ictal state associated with blurring of vision and 1 vomiting episode. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with angiography and venography of the brain was advised, and the brain parenchyma was found to be anatomically normal. Incidental findings of the persistent occipital sinus with absent/ hypoplastic bilateral transverse sinus were made using venography imaging of the brain. This is a type of fetal presentation of venous blood flow. It is paramount to neurosurgeons because a prominent occipital sinus with an absent bilateral transverse sinus might change the surgical approach for the posterior fossa lesions.
