A Rare Case Report of a Vertebral Artery Variant Arising From the Aorta With Its Clinical Significance: An Uncommon Anatomy Unveiled.
Article in Cureus, 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
The vertebrobasilar (VB) system, comprising two vertebral arteries and one basilar artery, is responsible for providing vital vascular supply to the central nervous system structures. Disruption in this network can lead to fatal neurologic outcomes, and variations in the origin of vessels may contribute to unexplained symptoms of clinical relevance. Therefore, an extensive understanding of the VB system's anatomy and its variations is crucial for diagnosing neurological disorders. Here, we report a case of a vertebral artery variant arising from the aortic arch proximal to the left subclavian artery in the cadaver of a 50-year-old male, discovered incidentally during a teaching dissection session. We also discuss the clinical pathophysiology and the relevance of the neurological symptoms in relation to the anomaly.
