Spontaneous recession of a posterior cerebral artery aneurysm concurrent with carotid rete mirabile and moyamoya-pattern collateral vessels: a case report.
Article in BMC neurology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
backgroundCarotid rete mirabile (RM) is a meshwork of multiple, freely intercommunicating arterioles that reconstitute the absent or hypoplastic segments of the internal carotid artery (ICA). Carotid RM has been reported to be associated with cerebrovascular diseases. However, it is rarely associated with moyamoya-pattern collateral vessels in the posterior cerebral artery (PCA) region and aneurysm. CASE PRESENTATION: A 39-year-old woman was admitted complaining of sudden-onset headache, nausea, and vomiting. Further investigation revealed subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), carotid RM, a moyamoya collateral pattern in the PCA region, and a pseudoaneurysm in the moyamoya-like vessels. The patient was treated conservatively, recovered well and was discharged 1 week later. Follow-up angiography showed that the aneurysm had disappeared.
conclusionsAs shown by the present case, we believe that carotid RM could occur in combination with moyamoya-pattern collateral vessels in the PCA region; aneurysms can occur in the moyamoya-like vascular network. Congenital etiology may be the reason for these combinations. Based on our approach in this case, aneurysm located in moyamoya-like vessels can disappear spontaneously after conservative treatment.
