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

As a significant cause of intracerebral hemorrhages, seizures, and neurological decline, brain arteriovenous malformations (bAVMs) are a rare group of complex vascular lesions with devastating implications for patients' quality of life. Although the concerted effort of the scientific community has improved our understanding of bAVM biology, the exact mechanism continues to be elucidated. Furthermore, to this day, due to the high heterogeneity of bAVMs as well as the lack of objective data brought by the lack of evaluative and comparative studies, there is no clear consensus on the treatment of this life-threatening and dynamic disease. As a consequence, patients often fall short of obtaining the optimal treatment. Endovascular embolization is an inherent part of multidisciplinary bAVM management that can be used in various clinical scenarios, each with different objectives. Well-trained neuro-interventional centers are proficient at curing bAVMs that are smaller than 3 cm; are located superficially in noneloquent areas; and have fewer, larger, and less tortuous feeding arteries. The transvenous approach is an emerging effective and safe technique that potentially offers a chance to cure previously untreatable bAVMs. This review provides the state of the art in all aspects of endovascular embolization in the management of bAVMs.
