Post-treatment Recovery in Orbital Arteriovenous Fistulas: A Systematic Review.
Review in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Orbital arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs) are rare vascular malformations that can cause severe ocular complications. This review evaluates the effectiveness of treatment strategies, focusing on post-treatment recovery and recurrence. A systematic review was conducted using PubMed and Scopus with no date restrictions. Studies were screened based on predefined criteria, and data on presentation, treatment, and outcomes were extracted. The quality assessment followed the CARE (CAse REport)and ROBINS-I (Risk of Bias In Non-randomised Studies of Interventions) guidelines. Fourteen studies were included. Transvenous embolization was the treatment with the highest success and low complication rates. Conservative treatment resulted in the disappearance of some fistulas; surgical and endovascular therapies were also combined for complex AVFs. Transvenous embolization is the preferred treatment method for orbital AVFs, although conservative management might also be sufficient in selected cases, with a multidisciplinary approach being required for complex fistulas.
