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

We report a case of the formation of a dural arteriovenous fistula (dAVF) of the transverse-sigmoid sinus following venous sinus stenting (VSS), treated with trans-arterial embolisation and venous remodelling. An obese woman in her 30s presented with persistent daily headaches after undergoing endoscopic repair of a skull base cerebrospinal fluid leak. Angiography demonstrated a focal right transverse-sigmoid sinus stenosis, and she underwent VSS of the right transverse sinus. She developed progressive pulsatile tinnitus within 3 months, and angiography demonstrated the formation of a Borden type 1 dAVF along the stent. Trans-arterial embolisation of the dAVF was performed with venous remodelling using a Copernic RC balloon. While VSS has become a promising treatment for venous sinus stenosis and idiopathic intracranial hypertension, dAVF formation is a rare but significant potential complication. Embolisation with venous remodelling can be performed to treat these lesions.
