Acute ischemic stroke due to unruptured small aneurysm of internal carotid artery: A case report.
Article in Medicine, 2020. 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
rationaleIntracranial small aneurysm is a rare cause of ischemic stroke, and been described only in sparse case reports. The exact pathophysiology, treatment strategies, and prognosis remain incompletely understood. PATIENT CONCERNS: A 42-year-old man presented with an acute onset weakness of the right limbs. DIAGNOSES: Neuroimaging evaluation confirmed a diagnosis of acute ischemic stroke and left internal carotid artery (ICA) small aneurysm.
interventionsThe patient underwent oral anti-platelet therapy (100 mg aspirin daily). OUTCOMES: The patient recovered to normal status within 4 weeks following antiplatelet treatment. During a follow-up period of 1 year, he remained neurologically asymptomatic and led a virtually normal life. LESSONS: It is crucial for clinicians to be aware of this entity, as cerebral infarction caused by small cerebral aneurysm is extremely rare.
