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

Radiation-associated aneurysms are rare, difficult to treat, and associated with high morbidity and mortality when ruptured, compared with aneurysms unrelated to radiation treatment. We present a 16-year-old patient with a radiation-induced intracranial aneurysm arising from the left posterior inferior cerebellar artery (PICA), 10 years following radiotherapy for medulloblastoma. The patient successfully underwent endovascular coil embolization of the parent artery across the neck of the aneurysm. CT angiography and MRI in the days following the procedure demonstrated maintained flow in the anterior and lateral medullary PICA segments with no brainstem infarct.
