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

purposeThe variations of Cerebral arterial circle (Circle of Willis) are not rare. The study is done to assess the pattern of the component vessels of its anterior part with regard to Right- Left variations and compare with other studies. MATERIAL AND

method56 formalin fixed cadavers were analyzed. The diameter, length and variations of the following vessels were observed: Anterior Cerebral Artery (proximal A1 segment to distal A2 segment) and anterior communicating artery. Statistical analysis was done by Statistica 14.0.1 software.

result53.57% had normal anterior cerebral artery- anterior communicating artery complex. Length and diameter were slightly more on left side. Unilateral hypoplasia, Azygos and Tripple Anterior Cerebral Artery was present in 21.43%, 3.57 and 1.78% respectively. Aplastic, double and fenestration type anterior communicating artery were present in 5.3%, 8.92% and 1.78% respectively.

conclusionAnatomical knowledge of variations should be updated regularly for neurosurgeons, radiologists and clinicians to avoid unexpected consequences.
