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

purpose of reviewThe purpose of this review is to provide an overview of idiopathic non-atherosclerotic causes of carotid artery disease and its manifestations. RECENT

findingsFour major causes of non-atherosclerotic carotid artery disease including dissection, fibromuscular dysplasia, moyamoya disease, and inflammatory large vessel vasculitis are discussed. While there is a dearth of clinical trials involving some of the rarer conditions, recent data from clinical trials supporting antiplatelet over anticoagulation treatment of cervical artery dissection, recent consensus statements on the management of fibromuscular dysplasia, and guideline approaches to diagnosis and treatment of large vessel vasculitis are summarized. Idiopathic non-atherosclerotic causes of carotid artery disease are under appreciated and may lead to significant morbidity and mortality. While less common compared with atherosclerotic disease, non-atherosclerotic disease may affect younger patient populations and result in non-cerebrovascular arterial involvement and systemic organ damage. Therefore, prompt recognition of these disorders is key to their management.
