De Novo Blister Aneurysm Formation in 16 Days Associated with Mucorales Fungi.
Article in Cureus, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Although blister aneurysms represent a small percentage of all intracranial aneurysms, they are generally considered to be a more morbid and challenging entity than the more common saccular intracranial aneurysms. Despite this, the etiology of blister aneurysms is still unknown, though there are several theories. We present the case of a 54-year-old man who initially presented with vision loss and normal intracranial computed tomography angiography imaging. Only 16 days thereafter, he underwent rapidly progressive clinical decline, which was found to be due to the development and rupture of a de novo supraclinoidal blister aneurysm. Autopsy results showed fungal infection of the arterial wall by Mucorales fungi at the site of the aneurysm. Our case report supports the theory that blister aneurysms can be caused by fungal infection of the wall of the internal carotid artery.
