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

Chronic spinal subdural hematoma is an extremely rare condition. We recently encountered a case of symptomatic thoracolumbar chronic spinal subdural hematoma in an older patient caused by a fall. The patient was a man in his 80s with a history of cerebral infarction, who was receiving oral antiplatelet therapy. He was hospitalized for conservative treatment for a brain contusion and mild acute subdural hematoma, and was discharged home after 6 days. However, 9 days after the injury, the patient developed back pain, weakness in both lower limbs, and urinary incontinence and was brought to our hospital. A computed tomography scan on admission displayed a high-density area in the thoracolumbar spinal canal, and magnetic resonance imaging 2 weeks after the fall displayed a spinal subdural hematoma from 8
