Shoulder Pain Associated With Multiple Arteriovenous Malformations Successfully Treated With Embolization.
Article in Cureus, 2023. 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
A 44-year-old male presented with left upper extremity and shoulder pain with worsening functional impairment after years of repetitive use, overtraining, and multiple injuries from weightlifting and mixed martial arts. Imaging showed no obvious injury or ligamentous deformity other than mild osteoarthritis (OA) of the left glenohumeral joint. Duplex ultrasonography (US) revealed four arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) surrounding the shoulder joint and left upper extremity. The vasculature was mapped via angiography through a transradial approach. Initial treatment included transarterial embolization of two AVMs off the axillary artery and branching anterior circumflex humeral artery. Secondary treatment included embolization of two lesions months later via direct puncture, one through a transvenous approach and the second through direct transmalformation cannulation, via the nidus, near the clavicle and posterior scapular lateral border. Treatment resulted in significant improvement in pain and range of motion. Follow-up assessments revealed improvement in overall symptoms, recovered function, and return to exercise and competitive mixed martial arts. This case highlights the value of duplex ultrasonography, embolization, and transarterial and transvenous approaches for the treatment of AVM-associated extremity or joint pain.
