Venous Malformations: Diagnosis, Management, and Future Directions.
Review in Seminars in interventional radiology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Venous malformations (VMs) represent the most common type of congenital vascular anomalies, characterized by slow-flow lesions arising from disorganized angiogenesis. These malformations can vary widely in size, location, and clinical impact, presenting significant challenges in diagnosis and management. A multidisciplinary approach is essential for optimizing care, with goals centered on symptom relief and functional preservation. Diagnostic evaluation typically involves clinical examination, imaging, and, in complex cases, genetic testing. Interventional radiology, particularly sclerotherapy and endovascular embolization, has become the first-line treatment, complemented by surgical and emerging molecular therapies, particularly targeting the mTOR/PI3K/AKT pathway. This review provides a comprehensive examination of the genetics, clinical presentation, and key diagnostic imaging aspects of VMs, along with a detailed discussion of current treatment modalities, emerging therapeutic techniques, and future directions for improving patient care.
