Superficial Temporal Artery-middle Cerebral Artery Anastomosis for Ischemic Stroke due to Dissection of the Intracranial Internal Carotid Artery with Middle Cerebral Artery Extension.
Article in NMC case report journal, 2018. 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
A 31-year-old man presented with a sudden-onset headache, right hemiparesis, and dysarthria on day 0 and was diagnosed with acute ischemic stroke due to dissection of the left intracranial internal carotid artery with middle cerebral artery extension. His symptoms progressed despite the institution of treatment, suggesting progression of the dissection. On day 5 after symptom onset, the patient underwent superficial temporal artery-middle cerebral artery anastomosis. No new ischemic stroke event occurred after surgery. Cerebral angiography performed 6 months after surgery showed spontaneous resolution of the dissection. The patient recovered to a modified Rankin Scale score of 2 and was able to return to work. The results of the present case suggest that superficial temporal artery-middle cerebral artery anastomosis is an effective treatment for ischemic stroke due to dissection of the intracranial internal carotid artery with middle cerebral artery extension.
