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

Pulmonary arteriovenous malformations (PAVMs) are abnormal vascular connections between the pulmonary arteries and pulmonary veins. Despite their relatively uncommon incidence, PAVMs should be considered in the differential diagnosis of children presenting with cyanosis due to the life-threatening complications posed by paradoxical emboli. The primary management approach involves eliminating the abnormal connections, either through surgical or endovascular methods. We present a case of a five-year-old boy who was seen in the Outpatient Department with cyanosis of the lips and nail beds persisting for eight months. On examination, grade 3 clubbing was noted. Imaging and subsequent angiography revealed multiple bilateral diffuse AVMs, which were treated using an endovascular approach.
