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: Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage is a condition resulting from the rupture of a cerebral aneurysm, sometimes leading to delayed cerebral ischemia, primarily due to angiographic vasospasm; its prediction is crucial to improve patient management and outcomes. Objective: To assess the predictive value of clinical, analytical and imaging parameters for vasospasm in aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage and to develop a clinical practical score. Methods: The current single-center retrospective study included 115 patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage who underwent a computed tomography scan within 24 hours of ictus. Clinical and analytical data were collected, and Hounsfield unit (HU) measurements were independently assessed. Statistical analyses were conducted to identify predictors of vasospasm. Results: Vasospasm occurred in 40% of patients (46/115). The multivariate analysis identified intracerebral hemorrhage (odds ratio [OR] = 2.482; 95%CI = 1.019-6.046; Conclusion: We identified significant predictors of vasospasm in patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage, namely interpeduncular HU value, intracerebral hemorrhage, and serum chloride levels. A practical 5-point score based on these factors offers a potentially-robust, easy-to-use tool for early risk stratification, which may guide personalized follow-up and timely interventions. Further prospective multicenter studies are recommended to validate these findings.
