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

introductionThis case report illustrates a new variant in the anterior cerebral artery complex, identified during carotid angioplasty. CLINICAL CASE: A 50-year-old male patient diagnosed with left carotid stenosis was diagnosed and treated by a cerebral angiography. During the procedure, crossed circulation in the anterior cerebral artery was identified. The presence of this variation demanded to discard distal emboli or artery dissection. Angioplasty was performed and the patient followed up without neurological deficit. DISCUSSION: Among the most possible and prevalent variations in anterior circulation, none of them explain the phenomenon we observed. Therefore, a new variant is established. The knowledge about variants in cerebral circulation is important to rule out pathology.

conclusionCerebral diagnostic angiography has become more available and frequent because of the rising in endovascular tools to treat stroke patients. Considering this new variation and others is important to discard pathology.
