Giant dural arteriovenous fistula in a pediatric patient: positive outcome following surgical treatment.
Article in Child's nervous system : ChNS : official journal of the International Society for Pediatric Neurosurgery, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper, 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
purposeOur purpose is to present an atypical case of a 4-month-old patient with a giant dural arteriovenous fistula (DAVF).
methodsPresentation of a case report and review of the literature.
resultsThe DAVF arterial supply was through the middle meningeal artery bilaterally and the anterior and middle cerebral arteries on the right hemisphere. The venous drainage was through the posterior two-thirds of the superior sagittal sinus. The endovascular team performed an embolization to reduce the flow of the lesion, and finally, the surgical team completed the excision of the residual venous sac, without causing any significant neurological deficit. We used a double surgical approach done with two surgical teams in order to optimize the hemostasis control and reduce morbidity and mortality.
conclusionMidline DAVF usually has devastating consequences in children. Endovascular treatment is the first choice since it has lower mortality. Nevertheless, it requires multiple interventions, and the cure of the disease may not be achieved. We believe that joint endovascular and surgical treatment, supported by a reliable multidisciplinary medical team, is a good option for this type of lesions.
