Endovascular transvenous treatment for superficial intracranial arteriovenous malformations.

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
objectiveThe objective of this study was to evaluate the feasibility and outcomes of transvenous endovascular embolization (TVE) for superficial intracranial arteriovenous malformations (AVMs).
methodsAfter collecting clinical and imaging data, a prospective series of 11 patients presenting with superficial AVMs were treated by endovascular embolization using a transvenous approach between November 2016 and October 2018.
resultsTen patients (90.9%) had ruptured AVMs before TVE. The mean nidus size was 3.27 ± 1.47 cm, and the median Spetzler-Martin grade was II. The rate of immediate angiographic occlusion of the AVMs was 90.9% (10/11). One patient was treated with transarterial embolization since TVE was not achieved due to an unsuccessful positioning of the microcatheter. Two patients (cases 8 and 11) suffered a intracranial hemorrhage and a cerebral infarction with encephaledema, respectively, but no procedure-related mortalities were observed. Eight patients (72.7%) were independent with a modified Rankin Score (mRS) ≤ 2 at discharge and the mRSs of all patients, which were collected 30 days postintervention, were not more than 2. The mean follow-up period was 17 months. There were no nidus recurrences during the follow-up period.
conclusionsThe curative transvenous embolization of superficial AVMs seems feasible and effective while carefully monitoring for embolization-related complications.
