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

The azygos artery is an uncommon vascular variant of the anterior cerebral artery (ACA). This anomaly is associated in a high percentage with aneurysms. Management of azygos ACA aneurysms represents a surgical challenge. We present five patients who underwent microsurgical treatment for distal azygos ACA aneurysms with complex morphology. Four patients showed subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) and one complained of sentinel headache. Early preoperative digital subtraction angiography (DSA) or computerized tomography angiography (CTA) was performed. All patients were treated by surgical clipping via an anterior interhemispheric approach. During follow-up, all patients had a satisfactory outcome, with postoperative angiograms showing complete resolution of aneurysms.
