Relationship between diabetes mellitus with dural arteriovenous fistula.
Article in Neuroradiology, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
introductionThe aetiology of dural arteriovenous fistula (DAVF) is not well known, but it has been suggested that abnormality in angiogenesis plays a pathological role. Abnormality in angiogenesis is also involved in diabetes mellitus (DM). The purpose of this study was to quantify the relation between DAVF and DM in a Korean population.
methodsMedical records of 192 patients with DAVF between 2002 and 2011 were reviewed. Age, sex and the presence of DM, hypertension, hyperlipidaemia, stroke, coronary artery disease and cancers were compared between DAVF and control subjects. Data for control were obtained from the Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. The relationship of DM and DAVF location, presenting symptoms (benign vs. aggressive) and classification (Borden and Geibprasert) were assessed using the Pearson's chi-square test.
resultsPrevalence of DM was higher in DAVF patients (19.8 %) than in controls (9.5 %; p = 0.004). Univariate analysis showed that DM (odds ratio (OR), 2.356; 95 % confidence interval (CI), 1.634-3.399; p < 0.001) and age (OR, 1.022; 95 % CI, 1.012-1.032; p < 0.001) increased the odds of DAVF. This was supported by multivariate analysis (DM: OR, 2.092; 95 % CI, 1.391-3.145; p = 0.0004 and Age: OR, 1.021; 95 % CI, 1.009-1.033; p = 0.001). When these analyses were repeated after stratification by sex, there was no relation between age and DAVF in men. Borden II and III (p = 0.038) and aggressive symptoms (p = 0.023) were related to DM.
conclusionThere was a positive relation between DM and DAVF in a Korean population. DAVFs with aggressive symptoms and behaviour were more commonly related to DM.
