Twig-like MCA: A rare cause of intracranial bleeding.
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 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
Twig-like or unfused middle cerebral artery (MCA) is a rare congenital vascular anomaly defined by the absence of the M1 segment. It can be found incidentally or can be revealed by cerebral ischemia or hemorrhage. Although rare, neuroradiologists should be familiar with such findings in order to differentiate them from differential diagnoses such as Moyamoya disease and steno-occlusive disorders of the MCA. We report a case of a twig-like MCA revealed by intracranial bleeding in an 84-year-old woman.
