Incidental finding of left vertebral artery agenesis: Case report.
Article in Radiology case reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Vertebral artery agenesis is a rare congenital malformation, with few reported cases in the literature and no epidemiological data in the world at this point in time. The importance of diagnosis lies in identifying a potential risk factor for future ischemic events of the posterior circulation, in particular in the young population. It is also important to determine the etiology of chronic headache of unexplained cause that could be attributed to this entity. The present case describes this finding in a 27-year-old female patient with no pathological history, with multiple stab wounds was brought to the emergency room of our hospital .During the study of whether the wounds caused had been penetrating to the neck, a CT angiography was performed. The CT documented an incidental finding of absent left transverse foramen of the cervical vertebrae, absence of the left vertebral artery from its origin in the ipsilateral subclavian artery and a single dolichoectatic right vertebral artery crossing the midline at the entrance to the foramen magnum.
