Preoperative transcatheter arterial embolization successfully minimizes intraoperative bleeding in juvenile nasopharyngeal angiofibroma even without internal carotid artery branch embolization: A report of two cases.
Article in Radiology case reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Juvenile nasopharyngeal angiofibroma (JNA) is a histopathologically benign and highly vascular neoplasm of the nasopharynx. Surgery is the treatment of choice for this type of tumor, but its highly vascular nature could result in profuse and uncontrollable bleeding. Preoperative transcatheter arterial embolization offers an effective and minimally invasive modality for reducing intraoperative blood loss. We report 2 cases of JNA in a 17-year-old male and 14-year-old male who underwent preoperative embolization of external carotid artery branch using gelatin sponge slury and polyvinyl alcohol. Even without internal carotid artery branch embolization, both of our reported cases had intraoperative blood loss of 1100 mL and 1300 mL which are less than the previously reported mean blood loss of 1428 mL in patients who underwent both internal and external carotid artery branch embolization.
