Hybrid Endovascular and Surgical Treatment of a Traumatic Scalp Arteriovenous Fistula.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Traumatic scalp arteriovenous fistula (AVF) is a relatively rare complication of scalp trauma. Patients most commonly present with a growing pulsatile head mass. History of trauma, clinical presentation, and diagnostic imaging, including digital subtraction angiography, aid in establishing the diagnosis. Endovascular embolization is the preferred treatment modality which may be combined with surgical excision for larger complex lesions. In this case, we report the clinical and radiological features of a traumatic scalp AVF in a middle-aged man with a remote history of trauma that was treated with a two-step hybrid approach combining transarterial embolization with surgical resection. We also present a brief overview of the various treatment modalities currently employed to treat scalp AVFs.
