Variations in diameters of vertebro-basilar tree in patients with or with no aneurysm.
Article in Medical archives (Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina), 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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 morphological anatomy of the posterior circulation is very complex and variable. Aims of this research were to document the morphological anatomy of the posterior circulation along with variations in the Bosnian population, in patients with or without aneurysm. Measurements of the outer diameters of the vertebral artery, basilar artery and posterior cerebral artery were taken. The second aim was to determine the possible relationship between diameters of the area with subsequent aneurysm formation. MATERIAL AND
methodsThe study involved 60 consecutive patients, adults of both sexes, treated in the UKC Tuzla. The patients were divided into two groups. One group consisted of the patients without aneurysm of basilar artery, and the other group of patients with aneurysm. All the 60 patients were treated by means of MRI angiography.
resultsThe mean diameter of the vertebral artery was 2.43 mm; 3.61 mm on the right and 2.83 mm; 3.94 mm on the left. The diameter of the basilar artery varied from 3.8 mm; 3.43 mm. The diameter of the posterior cerebral arteries 2.5 mm; 2.52 mm on the right and 2.46 mm; 2.62 mm on the left.
conclusionsWe have documented the various morphometry variations as well as the differences of the anatomy in this area in Bosnian population as compared to the medicine literature.
