1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

In embolization of a cavernous sinus (CS) by transvenous embolization (TVE) for a CS dural arteriovenous fistula (DAVF), selection of embolization coils is difficult owing to the complex anatomical structure of the CS. Moreover, overpacking of the CS with embolization coils may cause permanent cranial nerve palsies. The ED coil-10 (EDC-10) infini is an extremely soft platinum coil without shape-memory that has excellent conformability with surrounding structures. The goal of this study was to evaluate use of the EDC-10 infini coil for embolization of a CS DAVF. Six patients with a CS DAVF were treated with TVE. Refluxing cerebral and ophthalmic veins were embolized with shape-memory type coils other than EDC-10 infini, and CSs were embolized with the EDC-10 infini coils. In five cases, CSs were loosely embolized with EDC-10 infini coils. In one case, reflux of the cerebral vein worsened from the CS during the procedure, and embolization of the CS tightly using three-dimensional shape-memory type coils other than EDC-10 infini. Overall, three to 19 (average 7.3) coils were used fozr each CS and the total coil volume was 33-284 (average 95.1) mm(3) in each CS. Postoperative transient abducens palsy occurred in two cases, but both patients recovered completely. There was no case of recurrence. The EDC-10 infini coil showed excellent conformability with the complex inner structure of the CS and excellent safety without postoperative permanent cranial nerve palsy.
