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

objectiveIntracranial intracranial dural arteriovenous fistulas (DAVFs) are mainly treated with an endovascular approach and various embolic agents. The aim of this study was to investigate the efficacy and safety of Onyx embolization in the treatment of DAVFs and characterize the factors as sociated with complete obliteration.

methodsThis retrospective study was based on 62 patients with DAVFs who underwent endovascular treatment with Onyx alone or in combination with coils at our institution. Clinical and imaging data were collected and analyzed.

resultsA total of 62 patients with 64 DAVFs were treated with endovascular embolization. The most common primary symptom was ophthalmological signs with a rate of 37.1%. Cognard type III was the most commonly seen subtype (32.8%). The immediate complete occlusion and follow-up rate was 92.2% and 93.5%, respectively. Transvenous balloon-assisted sinus protection was used in 12 patients (18.8%). The pressure cooker technique was used in eight patients (12.5%). Complications were seen in five patients including intracerebral hemorrhage (

conclusionsEndovascular Onyx alone or in combination with coils embolization is a safe and effective therapy for DAVFs. Favorable angiographic and clinical outcomes can be achieved using different endovascular approaches. Transvenous balloon-assisted sinus protection and the pressure cooker technique may help achieve complete occlusion of DAVFs.
