A case report of oral contraceptive misuse induced cerebral venous sinus thrombosis and dural arteriovenous fistula.
Article in Medicine, 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
rationaleConsumption of oral contraceptive pills (OCP) is a known risk factor for cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) among women. Development of dural arteriovenous fistula (dAVF) afterwards was very uncommon. We present a rare chronic complication of development of dAVF after CVST. PATIENT CONCERNS: A 22-year-old woman suffered headache for a week. She was then admitted into our hospital. DIAGNOSIS: Contrast enhanced magnetic resonance venography (MRV) demonstrated the thrombosis of the left transverse-sigmoid sinus the second day.
interventionsThe intravenous thrombolysis was carried out. As the symptoms improved, the patient was discharged, while the treatment with oral dabigatran continued. However, 3 months after the onset, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed swelling brainstem, and digital subtraction angiography (DSA) confirmed a dAVF. Clipping of the fistula was conducted, and her clinical symptoms improved gradually. OUTCOMES: The patient was transferred to rehabilitation center later, and received follow-up care. LESSONS: When a patient taking OCP and suffering from a sudden headache, a clinical suspicion of possible CVST should always arise to avoid the onset of dAVF as soon as possible.
