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

backgroundCervical vertebral artery (VA) aneurysm occasionally develops in association with penetrating injury. However, its treatment strategy is not yet determined. CASE DESCRIPTION: A 50-year-old woman with bipolar disorder attempted suicide by stabbing herself in the lateral neck. At presentation, focal neurological deficits were not observed. Spinal computed tomography (CT) showed unclear delineation of the VA in the right C4/5 intervertebral foramen. CT performed 7 days later identified an aneurysm of the right VA at C4/5, with abnormal arteriovenous shunts between the aneurysm and paravertebral venous plexus. The patient underwent coil embolization of the VA segment involving the aneurysm on the same day that was complicated by cerebellar ataxia due to procedure-associated infarction.

conclusionTraumatic VA aneurysms associated with penetrating injuries should be carefully managed with a detailed presurgical evaluation of the relevant cranial and spinal structures.
