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

Hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT, Rendu-Osler-Weber disease) is a vascular disorder with dominant autosomal transmission characterised usually by multiple mucocutaneous and visceral abnormalities. Neurological manifestations due to the primary involvement of spinal cord by vascular malformations are rare. We present a young man with HHT associated with a central nervous system arteriovenous malformation and a giant perimedullary fistula, that was manifested as progressive myelopathy. The diagnosis was made coupling magnetic resonance imaging to selective spinal arteriography. The therapeutic option was endovascular treatment by mechanically detachable coils which resulted in full exclusion of the fistula with full improvement of symptoms. During follow-up a stable clinical and morphological outcome was achieved. Clinical manifestations in HHT, with emphasis on neurological symptoms, are reviewed as well as the therapeutic options to deal with giant perimedullary fistula.
