Interventional management of head and neck emergencies: carotid blowout.
Review in Seminars in interventional radiology, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Involvement of the carotid artery by malignant processes of the head and neck with compromise of vessel integrity and rupture-"carotid blowout syndrome" (CBS)-is one of the most devastating complications of malignancy. Most often, it is associated with squamous cell cancer and almost always in patients who have undergone prior radiation therapy. CBS is classified as threatened, impending, or acute. Bleeding into the oral cavity or from areas of skin breakdown is a frightening experience for patients and their families and often a terminal event. Prognosis is poor with up to 50% mortality and morbidity, and surgical options are limited and risky. Endovascular management with vessel sacrifice or stent placement has become the principle treatment option in this patient population, though still associated with procedural complications, often neurologic, that can occur acutely or in a delayed fashion. This article reviews techniques and outcomes associated with endovascular treatment of CBS.
