Case Report: Endoscopic evacuation of acute subdural hematoma in selected young patients: a report of two cases.
Article in Frontiers in surgery, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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: Endoscope-assisted surgery for acute subdural hematoma (ASDH) has been successfully performed in selected elderly patients. Compared with a large craniotomy or craniectomy, this technique is characterized by minimal invasiveness, mild operative hemorrhage, and short duration. However, endoscopy does not seem to be appropriate for ASDH in young patients without brain atrophy, resulting in a scarcity of reports for this cohort. Case presentation: We present two young cases in which both ASDHs were effectively and safely evacuated endoscopically. The two men were 39 and 31 years old. Both patients maintained a stable neurological status before surgery but met the surgical indications. Conclusion: This favorable outcome suggests that endoscopic evacuation of ASDH could be proposed as an alternative option for selected young patients with clinical and radiological stability.
