Evaluation of a high-signal lesion posterior to the intracranial vertebral artery using 3D balanced fast-field echo imaging.
Article in Neuroradiology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Previous reports have identified a small, benign, high-signal lesion (HSL) posterior to the intracranial vertebral artery and associated with the ipsilateral spinal accessory nerve (SAN) using 3D fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (3D FLAIR) imaging as an emerging new entity. To elucidate the relationship between HSLs and SAN, 76 patients with 86 HSLs were evaluated using 3D FLAIR and 3D balanced fast-field echo (3D bFFE imaging). All HSLs showed contact with ipsilateral SAN on both the sequences. 3D bFFE imaging clearly distinguished between the two structures unlike 3D FLAIR. Moreover, SAN was surrounded by HSLs on 3D bFFE images, which may be a characteristic of this entity.
