Chronic subdural hematoma: Clinical experience and recurrence risk factors in a Mexican neurosurgery residency training program.
Article in Surgical neurology international, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Background: Chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH) recurrence remains a challenge, with risk factors still debated. Methods: A retrospective review of 185 CSDH cases surgically treated at Hospital Juárez de México (2014-2019) was conducted. Recurrence was defined as clinical deterioration with radiological re-expansion. Demographic, clinical, imaging and perioperative variables were analyzed statistically ( Results: The cohort included 145 males (78.4%) median age of 55 years. Head trauma was present in 75.7%. Hematomas were mostly chronic (69.2%), with 49.18% showing heterogeneous density. The surgical approaches used were single burr-hole (4.3%), double burr-hole (10.8%), and craniotomy (84.9%). Recurrence occurred in 16 cases (8.4%), primarily within a week. The significant risk factors for recurrence included thrombocytopenia (<130,000/uL, Conclusion: Thrombocytopenia and coagulopathy increase recurrence risk in CSDH. Craniotomy may reduce recurrence compared to burr-hole techniques. Further studies are needed to optimize surgical management.
