Transarterial embolization of petrosal dural arteriovenous fistula (dAVF): Feasible and successful in the post-Onyx era.

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
Background: Intracranial dural arteriovenous fistula (dAVF) is a rare arteriovenous malformation with potentially severe complications. This study investigates the efficacy and safety of transarterial embolization (TAE) in treating petrous dAVFs through a retrospective analysis and literature review. Case Description: A retrospective analysis of six patients with petrous dAVFs treated with TAE was conducted, accompanied by a systematic literature review to evaluate treatment outcomes. Data collection included patient characteristics, clinical presentation, Borden-Shucart and Cognard classifications, treatment specifics, and overall outcomes. TAE, particularly utilizing Onyx, demonstrated favorable outcomes in our six patients. Regarding literature review results, 102 articles were identified through PubMed Mesh tool search, but only five were included after careful evaluation. In addition, one article was manually added after searching for the remaining articles. Combining our six cases with literature findings, 79.8% ( Conclusion: Our presented cases and literature review suggest that the TAE of dAVFs is feasible and curative for selected cases of petrous dAVFs. However, the complexity of these lesions and the availability of other treatment modalities should be taken into consideration to optimize cure rates and patient outcomes.
