Posterior Inferior Cerebellar Artery Aneurysm Presenting With Severe Vertigo and Altered Sensorium.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Posterior inferior cerebellar artery (PICA) aneurysms are relatively uncommon among intracranial aneurysms and present unique challenges due to their complex anatomical origins. PICA aneurysms arise from the vertebral artery (VA), basilar artery, or anterior inferior cerebellar artery and can have complex anatomical sites and structures. A 31-year-old female known case of trigeminal neuralgia, currently asymptomatic for the same, experienced acute vertigo, headache, and altered sensorium. On the basis of the magnetic resonance imaging of the brain with angiography, she was diagnosed with a PICA aneurysm, necessitating immediate intervention. The patient subsequently underwent endovascular coiling of the aneurysm. The successful management of this unusual case emphasizes the significance of prompt diagnosis and early intervention in managing posterior inferior cerebellar artery aneurysms, leading to a favourable outcome. The patient is on regular follow-ups and has satisfactory progress.
