Extensive Epidural Hemorrhage Associated with Thoracolumbar Disc Extrusion in French Bulldogs.
Article in Veterinary sciences, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
(1) Background: Intervertebral disc extrusion may be accompanied by extensive epidural hemorrhage (EEH) and result in spinal cord compression. EEH is more commonly seen in French Bulldogs compared to other breeds. The majority of French Bulldogs have lumbar intervertebral disc extrusion, but it is unclear if there is an association between the site of thoracolumbar disc extrusion and EEH. This retrospective study's aim was to investigate the association and prevalence between the site of thoracolumbar intervertebral disc extrusion and EEH in French Bulldogs. (2) Methods: Thoracolumbar MRI of French Bulldogs was examined for the site of intervertebral disc extrusion and the presence, distribution, and extent of EEH. (3) Results: In 148 French Bulldogs with thoracolumbar intervertebral disc extrusion, the most common location was L4/L5 (22%), followed by L3/L4 (20%) and T13/L1 (15%), and 70.3% had EEH. The highest incidence of EEH across all thoracolumbar sites was seen at L1/L2 (84.2%), followed by L5/L6 (81.3%) and L2/L3 (72.2%). The incidence of EEH was 70.5% across all lumbar sites and 66.9% for all thoracic sites. (4) Conclusion: In this population of French Bulldogs, the prevalence of lumbar disc extrusion was high, and 70.3% had EEH. There was no significant difference between the site of thoracolumbar intervertebral disc extrusion and EEH.
