Spontaneous direct carotid-cavernous fistula with acute visual loss in an elderly patient: case report and review of the literature.
Article in Oxford medical case reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Carotid-cavernous fistulas are acquired vascular lesions, representing abnormal connections caused by a direct shunt or dural branches of the internal carotid artery and/or the external carotid artery connected to the cavernous sinus. We present an interesting, rare case of a spontaneous fistula with acute vision loss in an older patient. The patient was diagnosed with a direct carotid-cavernous fistula based on the clinical and radiological findings. We concluded that early diagnosis and etiological treatment could improve the prognosis of this type of carotid-cavernous fistula.
