Associations of Brain Arteriovenous Malformation-Related Factors with Epileptic Seizure Presentations.
Article in Diagnostics (Basel, Switzerland), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundArteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are abnormal tangles of arteries and veins that connect directly without an intervening capillary bed. Epileptic seizures are the second most common symptom in patients with brain AVMs, occurring in 30 to 50% of cases. However, the exact mechanism of epileptic seizure development in AVMs remains unclear. In this study, we aimed to investigate the factors associated with epileptic seizures in patients with brain arteriovenous malformation (AVMs) in Kazakhstan.
methodsA case-control study was conducted, which included 163 patients diagnosed with brain AVMs. Demographic and clinical data were collected and analyzed, and multivariate logistic regression was built to assess the factors associated with seizures in brain AVMs.
resultsfrom this rupture of vessels OR = 0.36 95% CI (0.14-0.91, a medium-to-high Spetzler-Martin score (III-V) OR = 6.16 (2.14-17.69) and OR = 3.05 (1.08-8.68), respectively), location in brain cortex (frontal lobe OR = 6.16 (2.04-18.54), parietal lobe OR = 9.37 (3.26-26.91), temporal lobe OR = 4.57 (1.56-13.36), occipital lobe OR = 0.27 (0.08-0.91), and the presence of hemiparesis OR = 0.12 (0.02-0.66) in adverse outcomes were statistically significantly associated with the presence of epileptic seizures in brain arteriovenous malformations patients.
conclusionsTo conclude, this contributed to model factors associated with brain arteriovenous malformations that are linked to epileptic seizures.
