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

backgroundThis study focuses on aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) with a high risk of delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) and acute hydrocephalus (AH). The aim was to compare the performance of an automatic algorithm for quantifying the volume of intracranial blood with the reference radiological scales to predict DCI, AH, and neurological outcome.

methodsThis was a single-center retrospective observational study of a cohort of patients with aSAH. We developed an automated blood detection algorithm based on the specific density of the blood clot. The blood clot was segmented on the first brain scan (total, supratentorial, cisternal, intraventricular). The predictive value of our model was compared, using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC

resultsWe analyzed the scans of 145 patients with aSAH. In our cohort, 51 patients (43%) had DCI and 70 patients (54%) had AH. At 3 months, 22% of patients had died and 19% had poor outcome (Glasgow Outcome Scale extended 2-4). Cisternal blood volume was significantly correlated with cisternal Hijdra scale (R

conclusionsWith no manual intervention, our algorithm performed as well as the best radiological scores in predicting the occurrence of DCI, AH, and neurological outcome.
