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

BACKGROUND AND

objectivesStereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) is an effective treatment modality used by neurosurgeons to treat cerebral arteriovenous malformations (AVMs), particularly for treating AVMs <10 cm

methodsWe retrospectively reviewed all patients treated using time-dosed SRS at our institution. Data, including AVM location, history of hemorrhage, history of intervention, AVM volume, Spetzler-Martin grade, presence of residual disease, and occurrence of postprocedural complications, were collected.

resultsSixteen patients were included. The median total AVM volumes treated were 9.64 cm

conclusionTime-dosed SRS seems to be effective for treating large AVMs or those in highly eloquent areas, with a low rate of complications.
