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

backgroundType 1 Spinal dural arteriovenous fistula (dAVF) is a rare but curable vascular cause of myelopathy. Microneurosurgery is a very efficacious modality in treating them.

methodA 26 year old gentleman with progressive flaccid paraparesis (LMN type) and urinary incontinence underwent surgery using exoscope for a right side T9-10 dAVF. A dilated vein was seen accompanying the exiting nerve root intraoperatively, consistent with the preoperative angiographic findings. The vein was ligated and divided leading to restitution of spinal cord vasculature on table and excellent postoperative outcome.

conclusionSurgical resection is a straightforward and highly effective treatment in spinal dAVF.
