Rapidly progressive subdural empyema secondary to acute pansinusitis complicated by superior sagittal sinus thrombosis in a young adult: a multidisciplinary case report.

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
Subdural empyema is a rare but life-threatening intracranial infection, most commonly arising as a complication of paranasal sinusitis. Early diagnosis and multidisciplinary treatment are essential to reduce morbidity and mortality. A 23-year-old previously healthy male developed a rapidly progressive subdural empyema associated with superior sagittal sinus thrombosis and severe sepsis. Clinical deterioration occurred within 24 hours of symptom onset. Cranial computed tomography revealed a left fronto-temporo-parietal subdural collection with mixed density and air inclusions, along with extensive pansinusitis. Emergency neurosurgical evacuation was followed by otorhinolaryngological surgical management. Broad-spectrum intravenous antibiotics and anticoagulation therapy were administered under intensive care monitoring. Microbiological analysis identified
