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

Spontaneous infratentorial hemorrhages (SIHs) are a type of hemorrhagic stroke that compromise the cerebellum and/or brainstem. While minimally invasive surgical (MIS) approaches are effective in treating spontaneous supratentorial hemorrhage, their efficacy in managing SIH remains unclear. This uncertainty prompted the undertaking of this systematic review and meta-analysis. Following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines, we conducted a comprehensive search of the PubMed, Scopus, and Cochrane Library databases. Studies were included if they had a minimum of five patients and reported at least one outcome of interest. The outcomes evaluated were technical success, mean hematoma reduction, good functional outcomes at 3- and 6-month follow-up, complication rates, rebleeding rates, and postoperative mortality. A subgroup analysis was performed based on hemorrhage location and surgical approach. Depending on the data, either a random-effects or common-effects model was applied, and heterogeneity was assessed using
