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

We present a case of a 70-year-old male who presented with left-sided weakness and dysarthria. Cranial imaging was suggestive of a cerebellar infarct and the patient was treated with aspirin and clopidogrel. Two months later a fall prompted further cranial imaging, which was concerning for an intracranial mass with vasogenic edema. Computed tomography angiogram (CTA) was negative for vascular lesion. Ultimately, a DSA revealed a Borden III dAVF between the right occipital artery and the posterior cerebellar vein that was treated with endovascular embolization.
