Traumatic middle meningeal artery pseudoaneurysm: Case report and review of literature.
Article in Journal of cerebrovascular and endovascular neurosurgery, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Traumatic aneurysms represent less than 1 percent of intracranial aneurysms and middle meningeal artery pseudoaneurysms are even rare. Traumatic aneurysms are usually pseudoaneurysms formed by the rupture of all the layers of the vessel wall. They are associated with high mortality as they can present as epidural, subdural, and rarely intraparenchymal hematoma. However, only nine cases of traumatic pseudoaneurysms of middle meningeal artery are reported that have presented as an acute intracerebral hematoma. We report a case of ruptured pseudo aneurysm of middle meningeal artery presenting with intraparenchymal hematoma in which hematoma evacuation and aneurysm excision was done immediately. The patient recovered well in the post-operative period. In addition, we reviewed all cases of middle meningeal artery pseudoaneurysms reported in the literature either as extradural hematomas, subdural/intraparenchymal hematomas, or subarachnoid hemorrhages. However, identifying the location of the aneurysm intraoperatively may be challenging as the hematoma may obscure the same. Distance from the sphenoid ridge may serve as a good intraoperative guide. Intraoperative localization along with surgical evacuation if done immediately can lead to gratifying results.
