Unveiling the uncommon: Giant internal jugular vein aneurysm in a neurofibromatosis patient: A case report.
Article in Radiology case reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Neurofibromatosis Type 1 (NF1) is a rare autosomal dominant disorder that has a wide array of clinical manifestations. NF1 Vasculopathies constitute 0.4% to 6.4% of the findings and they often develop in the arterial circulation while venous involvement is rare. We present a case of a 73-year-old male with NF1 with an incidental finding of right neck swelling for 2 months. Different radiological modalities were performed, identifying the lesion as an internal jugular vein aneurysm. The patient was managed conservatively as he was asymptomatic in relation to the swelling. NF1 venous vasculopathies are rare but they have detrimental consequences such as rupture and severe hemorrhage in view of the fragility of the aneurysmal wall and the infiltration of the neurofibroma into the vessel. Hence, high clinical suspicion and selective imaging and follow-up is advisable for physicians.
