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

purposeDural arteriovenous fistulae (dAVF) are an uncommon feature of PTEN hamartoma tumor syndrome (PHTS). We report a case of an adolescent male diagnosed with PHTS following the treatment of multiple intracranial dAVF to emphasize the association of vascular anomalies with this disorder and discuss potential implications. CASE REPORT: An adolescent male presented with bilateral proptosis secondary to intracranial venous hypertension. Workup revealed the presence of a complex intracranial dAVF which was treated with several embolization procedures. Following treatment, a de novo dAVF was identified on surveillance imaging. A genetic workup revealed a pathogenic mutation in PTEN consistent with a diagnosis of PHTS.

conclusionsRecognition that PHTS may be associated with dAVF, and potentially delayed spontaneous formation of dAVF, is critically important due to the potential for devastating yet preventable neurologic sequelae.
