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
objectiveTreatment of brain arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) aims to abolish any risk for intracranial hemorrhage with the preservation of the patient's functional status. We present the technique of pre-surgical endovascular devascularization through proximal feeder artery occlusion for the treatment of cranial AVMs rather than nidus occlusion. Also, we highlight the advantages and the possible clinical indications. PATIENTS AND
methodsTwo patients with brain AVM and one patient with scalp AVM were treated by pre-surgical endovascular devascularization followed by surgical resection. Endovascular devascularization was performed by occlusion of the AVM feeders only with Liquid Embolic System Agent (Onyx
resultsTotal resection of the AVM was achieved in all cases confirmed with follow-up angiographies, with no neurologic or systemic complications. Also, no major bleeding was detected. In addition, the surgical clips were avoided during surgery. Brain AVMs were safely resected in piecemeal fashion.
conclusionPre-surgical endovascular proximal feeder artery devascularization technique shows to be a safe, simple and effective technique for the management of cranial arteriovenous malformations. This technique simplifies both the endovascular and surgical approaches to complicated cranial AVM cases.
