Evaluating the safety and efficacy of transvenous embolization for brain arteriovenous malformation: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

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
BackgroundTransvenous embolization is a potential therapy for brain arteriovenous malformation, involving the use of microcatheters to guide an ethylene vinyl alcohol coil for vessel occlusion. However, the safety and efficacy of transvenous embolization are not fully established.ObjectiveTo evaluate the safety and efficacy of transvenous embolization for brain arteriovenous malformation.MethodsA systematic review of the literature of studies investigating the safety and efficacy of transvenous embolization for brain arteriovenous malformation was conducted in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis guidelines. Databases, including PubMed, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, and Embase were queried.ResultsIn the final analysis of 16 studies involving 368 brain arteriovenous malformation cases who received transvenous embolization, the complete occlusion was achieved in 91% (95% CI: 88%, 94%;
