Transitional vascular anomaly of a persistent medial procephalic vein causing obstructive hydrocephalus and intracranial haemorrhage.

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
We report a case of obstructive hydrocephalus caused by a transitional (shunting) developmental venous anomaly not previously reported in the literature. Both thalami in this patient drain into a midline vein in the floor of the third ventricle that crosses the cerebral aqueduct and exerts mass effect. While this patient's hydrocephalus was managed by a ventriculoperitoneal shunt catheter, their hospital course was complicated by a spontaneous intraparenchymal bleed of the left thalamus thought to be caused by their vascular malformation. Given the risk of venous infarcts, this transitional venous anomaly could not be treated safely.
