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

Persistent trigeminal artery (PTA) is the most common remnant of the primitive carotid-vertebrobasilar anastomoses, which typically form and obliterate during the early stages of human embryonic development. While PTA can be non-pathologic and is usually an incidental finding, it is also associated with various other vascular abnormalities, such as arteriovenous malformations and fistulae, but most commonly cerebral aneurysms. In these cases, aneurysms are usually reported in the anterior cerebral circulation or in the PTA trunk itself; to date, only one report exists of an associated aneurysm in the posterior circulation (basilar artery). These associated vascular pathologies are not only a source of morbidity and mortality but can also complicate subsequent endovascular treatment due to different flow patterns and increased vessel tortuosity. In this case report, we present the first reported case of PTA-associated aneurysm in the anterior inferior cerebellar artery and its resulting impact on the endovascular treatment of this aneurysm.
