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

Although anastomoses between the arterial branches arising from the internal carotid artery (ICA) can develop as collateral pathways between the bilateral ICAs in cases of dysgenesis of the ICA, anastomosis of the recurrent arteries branching from the first segment of the ophthalmic artery (OphA) has not been described. Herein, we report two cases of this rare anastomosis. In a 36-year-old man with left segmental dysgenesis of the ICA, an anastomosis between the bilateral ICAs developed around the sella turcica. In a 39-year-old woman with dysgenesis of the bilateral distal ICAs, an anastomosis between the superior hypophyseal trunk and bilateral ICAs was identified. The anastomoses in both cases were also supplied by recurrent arteries branching from the first segment of the OphAs. This is the first report describing recurrent arteries from the OphAs that form the anastomosis between bilateral ICAs.
