That which is unseen: 3D printing for pediatric cerebrovascular education.
Article in Child's nervous system : ChNS : official journal of the International Society for Pediatric Neurosurgery, 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
introductionPediatric cerebrovascular lesions are very rare and include aneurysms, arteriovenous malformations (AVM), and vein of Galen malformations (VOGM).
objectiveTo describe and disseminate a validated, reproducible set of 3D models for optimization of neurosurgical training with respect to pediatric cerebrovascular diseases
methodsAll pediatric cerebrovascular lesions treated at our institution with adequate imaging studies during the study period 2015-2020 were reviewed by the study team. Three major diagnostic groups were identified: aneurysm, AVM, and VOGM. For each group, a case deemed highly illustrative of the core diagnostic and therapeutic principles was selected by the lead and senior investigators for printing (CSG/JM). Files for model reproduction and free distribution were prepared for inclusion as Supplemental Materials.
resultsRepresentative cases included a 7-month-old female with a giant left MCA aneurysm; a 3-day-old male with a large, complex, high-flow, choroidal-type VOGM, supplied from bilateral thalamic, choroidal, and pericallosal perforators, with drainage into a large prosencephalic vein; and a 7-year-old male with a left frontal AVM with one feeding arterial vessel from the anterior cerebral artery and one single draining vein into the superior sagittal sinus
conclusionPediatric cerebrovascular lesions are representative of rare but important neurosurgical diseases that require creative approaches for training optimization. As these lesions are quite rare, 3D-printed models and open source educational materials may provide a meaningful avenue for impactful clinical teaching with respect to a wide swath of uncommon or unusual neurosurgical diseases.
