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

backgroundSpinal cord arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) comprise about 3%-4% of primary intraspinal masses and are only rarely found external to the C2-C7 cervical vertebral foramen. CASE DESCRIPTION: A 21-year-old female presented with neck pain and a spastic quadriparesis of 1 year duration. The cervical magnetic resonance imaging and three-dimensional computed tomography angiograms documented an AVM/dural arteriovenous fistula on the right fed by multiple arteries located in the C5-C6 and C6-C7 foramen intervertebralis; utilizing a laminectomy, the large feeding arteries were double-clipped. This allowed for devascularization of the AVM and facilitated resection while preserving the aberrant vertebral artery. The patient was discharged within 1 week and, 2 months later, was able to ambulate to the outpatient clinic.

conclusionDouble clipping of the two main right-sided arterial feeders at the C5-C6 and C6-C7 levels allowed for devascularization and resection of this large cervical AVM while carefully preserving the aberrant vertebral artery.
