1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

purposeTo describe a case of a medial-type persistent trigeminal artery (PTA) associated with multiple arterial variations.

methodsA 34-year-old woman with multiple sclerosis underwent cranial magnetic resonance (MR) angiography from the aortic arch to the neck region and intracranial region for the evaluation of an unruptured cerebral aneurysm that was previously detected on MR imaging. The MR machine was a 3-T scanner.

resultsThere was an aberrant right subclavian artery and bicarotid trunk, medial-type left PTA and ipsilateral posterior communicating artery (PCoA) supplying bilateral posterior cerebral arteries (PCAs). The unruptured aneurysm was located at the paraclinoid segment of the left internal carotid artery and was treated successfully by coil embolization via a transfemoral approach.

conclusionOnly 10% of PTAs are classified as the medial type. The association with extremely large ipsilateral PCoA, which supplies the bilateral PCAs, has not been previously reported. Aberrant right subclavian arteries are common and are frequently associated with a bicarotid trunk. Before catheterization of the cerebral arteries, the aortic arch and its branches must be evaluated by MR angiography or computed tomography angiography to prevent catheterization failure via the right transradial approach.
