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

Tetralogy of Fallot very rarely manifests with variations of the cerebral arteries, but we detected an extremely rare combination comprising 3 such variants -bilateral carotid-anterior cerebral arteries anastomoses, the vertebral-anterior inferior cerebellar arteries anastomosis (proximal basilar artery duplication) and a nonbifurcating cervical carotid artery- in a 19-year-old man during magnetic resonance angiography to evaluate syncope. Recognition and correct diagnosis of these variations are crucial prior to surgical or radiological cerebrovascular intervention. Both partial maximum-intensity-projection images and source images are useful in identifying these vessels on MR angiography.
