Combined use of Solitaire FR and Penumbra devices for endovascular treatment of cerebral venous sinus thrombosis in a child.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
A pre-teenager with newly diagnosed ulcerative colitis presented to an emergency department with acute headache, altered mental status and bilateral lower extremity weakness. Head CT demonstrated acute thrombus in the vein of Galen and straight sinus, and the patient was started on a heparin infusion. The patient clinically deteriorated and became unresponsive. In view of the rapid deterioration despite anticoagulation therapy, the patient was taken for endovascular treatment. A novel endovascular approach was performed with combined use of Solitaire FR and Penumbra devices to enhance access to the straight sinus and to limit intraprocedural blood loss. The post-treatment head CT demonstrated a decrease in hyperattenuation within the vein of Galen and straight sinus. The neurologic status improved within 24 h. The patient was discharged home with a normal neurologic examination.
