Carotid petrous segment aneurysm presenting as hypoglossal nerve palsy.
Article in Neuroradiology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Aneurysm in the petrous segment of the internal carotid artery is extremely rare, and symptoms are usually derived from compression of neighbor structures such as nerve palsies. Clinical symptoms can be nonspecific and imaging findings are complex, making the diagnosis of this kind of aneurysms extremely challenging. CT angiography is the best diagnostic tool, and treatment options include surgical and endovascular approaches, the latest being preferred. We report an extremely rare case of an aneurysm in the petrous apex presenting with hypoglossal nerve palsy. We document the aneurysm through CT and confirm it using angiography. We also describe the satisfactory management of this rare case. To the best of our knowledge this an extremely rare aneurism presenting with hypoglossal nerve palsy, in which successful interventional management was achieved through a specific and prompt diagnosis.
