Elongated styloid process as a possible cause of distal carotid artery dissection after carotid endarterectomy using indwelling shunt: A case report.
Article in Surgical neurology international, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Background: A dissection beginning from a point distal to the endpoint of the carotid endarterectomy (CEA) is called distal carotid artery dissection (CAD), which is known as one of the significant surgical complications of CEA. Case Description: We present a case of distal CAD as a perioperative complication after CEA using indwelling shunt. We estimated this pathophysiology to be caused by the mechanical conflict of the inflated balloon with the elongated styloid process. Conclusion: Since a distal CAD can cause severe, irreversible neurological deficits, preoperative assessment of the styloid process should be routinely performed in CEA.
