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

The rupture of a brain cranial arteriovenous malformation (bAVM) has been associated with pregnancy; however, due to scarcity of data about this rare condition, management still remains a dilemma both for obstetricians and neurophysicians. The management plan is decided after weighing the benefits of bAVM treatment against the risk of bleeding in pregnancy. There is consensus on deciding the treatment of ruptured brain AVM during pregnancy based on neurological and not obstetrical indications. The management is decided using a multidisciplinary approach.We report the case of a primigravida who presented at 15 weeks of gestation with intracranial haemorrhage secondary to ruptured bAVM, which was managed by glue embolisation. However, she presented again after 9 days in a moribund condition with fever, vomiting and malaise. The family was very concerned about the patient. The multidisciplinary team after evaluation of patient decided for hysterotomy based on the deteriorating maternal condition.
