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

Brain arteriovenous malformations (AVM) commonly present for medical attention after a patient experiences a rupture that results in a focal neurologic deficit, an epileptic event, or is found incidentally on cranial imaging performed for an unrelated reason. In contrast, carotid-cavernous fistulas (CCF) can develop high-flow arteriovenous shunting with symptoms attributable to venous hypertension. We discuss a unique case of a 54-year-old female presenting with signs and symptoms suggestive of a CCF but was found to have a perisylvian AVM with an enlarged draining vein draining into the cavernous sinus. Our case report demonstrates a combined endovascular and open surgical approach to a unique presentation of a brain AVM with the resolution of ocular symptoms.
