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

Sheehan's syndrome is caused by ischemic necrosis of the pituitary gland following hypo-perfusion to the pituitary gland. The prevalence is around 3.2% in women <40 years of age and is relatively common in developing countries. The diagnosis is made with the help of a suggestive obstetric history, clinical manifestations, laboratory findings of reduced hormone levels, and pertinent radiological features. The treatment is to replace the patient with deficient hormones and prevent the complications associated with it. We present the management of a patient with Sheehan's syndrome with pertrochanteric fracture due to the rarity of its presentation. The patient underwent the insertion of a proximal femur nail under closed reduction and achieved optimum results post operatively. As such no case reports with these findings have been documented in the literature or online sources.
