Rapid ventricular overdrive pacing and other advanced flow-control techniques for the endovascular embolization of vein of galen malformations.
Review in Frontiers in pediatrics, 2023. 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
Endovascular embolization is the primary strategy in the management for vein of Galen malformations (VOGM). However, despite significant advances in endovascular embolization technologies and techniques, VOGMs remain very technically challenging lesions largely due to the high-flow arteriovenous shunts present in these malformations. A variety of advanced flow-control techniques can be implemented to mitigate the risk of venous escape and increase the safety and efficacy of endovascular treatment. These techniques include regionally targeted strategies (transvenous embolization and balloon-assisted transarterial embolization) and global flow-control methods (pharmacologic cardiac arrest and rapid ventricular overdrive pacing). Each of these strategies are associated with unique advantages and disadvantages, highlighting the importance of a patient-specific approach when treating these challenging lesions.
