Ruptured presentation of superficial temporal artery pseudoaneurysm treated with anastomotic repair: Case report.
Article in Trauma case reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Superficial temporal artery (STA) pseudoaneurysm is a very rare occurrence that usually presents as a pulsatile mass along the STA distribution following trauma or an iatrogenic cause. We report a case of STA pseudoaneurysm that developed in a 32 year old male following blunt trauma. Unfortunately, the pseudoaneurysm was missed and led to multiple hospital presentations that culminated in an acute bleeding episode. Surgical resection of the pseudoaneurysm was performed and the STA was reconstructed with an STA-STA anastomosis. To our knowledge, this is the second reported case of an STA pseudoaneurysm treated with an STA-STA anastomosis. This case report aims to bring awareness. Although extremely rare, the importance of treating the presence of a pulsatile mass along the STA distribution following a history of trauma or recent cranial surgery with a high level of suspicion is imperative.
