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: Women are at a higher risk of poor outcomes following spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) compared to men, necessitating closer clinical monitoring. Preventing hematoma expansion (HE) represents a promising therapeutic target in the management of spontaneous ICH. This study aimed to develop a clinically practical decision tree model to predict HE in women. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed women with spontaneous ICH. All patients underwent initial and follow-up non-contrast CT scans within 6 h and 72 h after symptom onset, respectively. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to identify independent predictors of HE. A decision tree model was developed for HE prediction. Results: A total of 417 patients were included, with 64 (15.3%) exhibiting HE on follow-up imaging. Multivariate analysis revealed that midline shift (odds ratio [OR], 1.18; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.07-1.30; Conclusion: We developed a simple, interpretable decision tree model to predict HE in women. This tool may support clinicians in identifying high-risk patients and guiding timely interventions.
