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

Traumatic vertebral artery injury is a rare, life-threatening injury that has been increasingly managed with endovascular intervention. However, an antegrade endovascular approach alone can fail to occlude traumatic pseudoaneurysms (PSAs) and arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs), requiring high-risk surgical reoperation. We have presented the case of a 27-year-old man with traumatic right vertebral artery PSA and AVF. Despite successful ipsilateral coil embolization, the PSA and AVF persisted via retrograde filling from the contralateral vertebral artery. Distal coil embolization was achieved through the contralateral vertebral artery in a novel "up and over" approach through the basilar artery. The findings from our case report have broadened the endovascular options for complicated traumatic injuries.
