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

Reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome (RCVS) is a rare condition whose exact underlying mechanisms remain undetermined. Herein, we report two exceptional family cases suggesting that a potential genetic factor might be involved in this condition. A mother and her daughter presented with recurrent thunderclap headaches and reversible vasoconstriction of the right middle cerebral artery in the first family. Clinical features suggestive of RCVS associated with a discrete subdural hemorrhage was observed in a mother and her daughter in a second family. These familial observations of RCVS suggest the existence of a genetic factor promoting the emergence of this condition.
