Ruptured Basilar Artery Perforator Aneurysm: A Case Report and Review of the Literature.
Article in NMC case report journal, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Basilar artery perforator aneurysms (BAPAs) are a rare cause of subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), and the natural history is still unknown. Herein, we report a case of ruptured BAPA that appeared during the observation period and then spontaneously disappeared; we have also conducted a review of the literature and performed an analysis based on the type of management. This case of BAPA had a unique course, and our observations may help establish a treatment strategy. A 60-year-old man presented with acute diffuse SAH, World Federation of Neurosurgical Societies (WFNS) Grade II and Fisher Grade 3. Initial three-dimensional digital subtraction angiography (DSA) did not show the source of the hemorrhage. DSA performed on day 39 showed a BAPA with a diameter of 3 mm at the posterior surface of the upper third of the basilar artery. Conservative treatment was chosen. DSA performed on day 64 showed complete resolution of the aneurysm.
