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

Rapid ascent to altitudes above 8,000 feet (2,500 meters) is known to be associated with acute mountain sickness (AMS), but its role as a cause of cerebrovascular disorders is rarely described. Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis is a rare and potentially fatal condition that can frequently be misdiagnosed. In this article, we report an unusual case of a 27-year-old woman who developed an extensive cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) during an expedition in the Atlas Mountains. The underlying mechanisms explaining this event will be discussed in light of this clinical observation.
