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

Background: Chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH) is a common neurosurgical condition that predominantly affects elderly individuals and is characterized by the accumulation of blood between the dura mater and the brain surface. Temporal muscle thickness (TMT) has emerged as a potential prognostic marker for various neurological diseases, including CSDH. This study aimed to evaluate the prognostic value of TMT in patients with CSDH. Methods: This retrospective study assessed TMT in patients with CSDH using cranial CT scans. We examined the correlation between TMT and CSDH-related clinical characteristics and evaluated the prognostic relevance of TMT. Results: A total of 844 participants were included in the study. TMT was significantly lower in patients with CSDH than in the control group ( Conclusion: The occurrence of CSDH is significantly correlated with the side of lower TMT. TMT may serve as an important prognostic marker in patients with CSDH, particularly for predicting functional outcomes.
