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

Vascular anomalies encompass 2 broad classifications including vascular tumors and vascular malformations. The management of vascular anomalies is best approached by a multidisciplinary team. Surgical treatment can offer definitive treatment, but carries several risks such as intraoperative hemorrhage, recurrence, and collateral vascular formations from incomplete resections. Here, we present a case report of 3 patients with different vascular anomalies who were all treated by a multidisciplinary team including interventional radiology and plastic surgery. All underwent preoperative embolization before surgical excision, accomplished under a single anesthetic. Here, we discuss the surgical planning and overall approach to patients presenting with localized vascular anomalies and support the use of preoperative embolization with surgical excision under a single anesthetic as a treatment approach.
