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

Objective: Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) is a rare but serious condition that can cause intracranial hypertension and hemorrhage. Common risk factors include thrombophilia and oral contraceptive use, but jugular Eagle syndrome-caused by an elongated styloid process compressing the internal jugular vein-is an uncommon yet clinically significant etiology. Case Presentation: A 44-year-old woman presented with severe right-sided headache, neck pain, and visual disturbances after cervical spine manipulation. Imaging revealed extensive CVST with venous congestion hemorrhage, and jugular Eagle syndrome was confirmed. Symptoms persisted despite anticoagulation, but her headache improved after successful endovascular thrombectomy. Styloidectomy was considered for long-term management. Conclusion: Jugular Eagle syndrome is a rare cause of CVST. Anticoagulation remains first-line, but thrombectomy may be required in refractory cases, and surgical styloidectomy should be considered for definitive management.
