Endovascular treatment of cervical artery dissection: ten case reports and review of the literature.
Review in Interventional neurology, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 papers, 2 of them syntheses 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
purposeThe role of endovascular treatment in cases of cervical artery dissection (CeAD) is debatable. With an increasing number of endovascular therapies such as endovascular recanalization and embolization the number of complications such as iatrogenic dissection is also rising. We report our experience with endovascular stenting in the treatment of patients presenting with CeAD.
methodsWe included all consecutive patients with CeAD (n = 168) treated in our hospital between 2001 and 2010 for our retrospective study. Patients with CeAD were considered eligible for stenting: (1) in iatrogenic dissections and (2) in noniatrogenic dissections if they suffered from recurrent ischemic events despite antithrombotic treatment.
resultsDuring our observation period 10 out of 168 patients presenting with CeAD were selected for stenting. Several types of stents were used. Stenting was technically successful in 8 but unsuccessful in 2 patients with complete arterial occlusion. Stent-related clinically apparent complications occurred in 3 of the 10 patients. All were transient. During a mean follow-up of 47 (±24.8) months none of the patients had new cerebrovascular ischemic events.
conclusionIn our patient sample stenting due to dissection is a rare procedure performed in less than 10% of CAD patients. It should be considered as a feasible rescue treatment in cases of impending stroke despite optimal antithrombotic therapy.
