Middle Meningeal Artery Embolization: A Paradigm Shift in Approach of Chronic Subdural Hematoma.
Review in Journal of community hospital internal medicine perspectives, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Chronic subdural hematoma (SDH) is commonly seen in the aged population. It is hypothesized to occur due to damage to the dural border cells, resulting in an inflammation-proliferation reaction. Inadequate repair leads to the formation of an external layer of cells and fragile capillaries, which are vulnerable to damage, contributing to worsening of the condition. Conventionally, asymptomatic chronic SDH was managed by observation, while symptomatic cases by surgical evacuation. However, the recurrence rate of chronic SDH after surgical evacuation was high. The middle meningeal artery (MMA) provides blood supply to the dura mater and feeds the capillaries of the membranes covering the SDH. MMA embolization blocks blood flow to this system and promotes hematoma resolution. In this manuscript, we discuss the underlying pathophysiology and current management options for chronic SDH. We also discuss the existing literature on MMA embolization.
