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

backgroundSpontaneous subperiosteal vertebral hemorrhages (SSVHs) are rarely documented in veterinary literature, with only a few cases reported in dogs. HYPOTHESIS/

objectivesDescribe the clinical presentation, imaging findings, and outcome of presumptive cervical SSVHs in dogs and perform a prospective cadaveric study describing the morphology of lesions. ANIMALS: Nine greyhounds presented with acute onset of cervical myelopathy.

methodsMulticenter descriptive study. The databases were searched for dogs that underwent magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), computed tomography (CT), or both of cervical vertebral column with SSVH as the main or differential diagnosis.

resultsNine middle-aged greyhounds met the inclusion criteria. On MRI, all lesions were at third cervical vertebra or fourth cervical vertebra or both vertebral bodies. Most were bilateral, symmetrical, and ventrolaterally located, causing spinal cord compression. Lesions showed homogeneous T2W hyperintense and T1W isointense to hyperintense signal relative to gray matter; they were non-contrast-enhancing and exhibited a peripheral rim of susceptibility artifact on T2*W images. On CT images, extradural lesions were homogeneously hyperattenuating (60-80 Hounsfield Units). All dogs had an acute onset of clinical signs and were treated medically. Clinical improvement was observed in all cases, and all nonambulatory dogs became ambulatory within 9 days. Clinical signs did not recur during the follow-up period (median, 254 days; range, 5-1217 days). CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL IMPORTANCE: Spontaneous subperiosteal vertebral hemorrhage should be included in the differential diagnosis of acute onset cervical myelopathy in greyhounds. Imaging characteristics can aid in differentiating subperiosteal hemorrhage from other extramedullary or extradural lesions. The prognosis is excellent despite the severity of neurologic impairment at presentation.
