Feasibility of Metal Artifact Reduction on CT Angiography for Planning Direct Surgery of Tentorial dAVF after Onyx Embolization.

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
Although Onyx is approved as an embolic material for arteriovenous malformation (AVM) and dural arteriovenous fistula (dAVF), metal artifacts due to Onyx on CT remain problematic. We report the feasibility of a metal artifact reduction (MAR) algorithm on CT angiography (CTA) in the planning of direct surgery of dAVF after transarterial Onyx embolization. A 45-year-old male patient presented with right pulsatile tinnitus, and cerebral angiography demonstrated right tentorial dAVF. As the dAVF had not completely disappeared even after Onyx transarterial embolization, we planned direct surgery. Evaluation of the lesion was difficult on normal preoperative CTA because of Onyx artifacts, but CTA using MAR enabled a detailed planning of direct surgery. Direct surgery was performed through right retrosigmoid craniotomy. Referencing CTA using MAR, we identified the draining veins originating from the main drainer, which were coagulated and cut, achieving complete occlusion of the dAVF. His symptoms disappeared with no postoperative complications. CT angiography using MAR was useful for planning direct surgery after Onyx embolization. As the incidence of direct surgery after transarterial Onyx embolization for AVM or dAVF is increasing, MAR on CTA will become more important.
