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

There are no reports of the coexistence of a right vertebral artery (VA) originating from the right common carotid artery (CCA), an aberrant right subclavian artery (SCA) and a primitive proatlantal intersegmental artery (PPIA); thus, we report such a case. A 61-year-old female presented with subarachnoid hemorrhage. Computed tomography angiography (CTA) and digital subtraction angiography (DSA) revealed a ruptured right posterior communicating artery (PcomA) aneurysm. The PcomA aneurysm was successfully embolized, and the patient recovered well. Moreover, CTA and DSA revealed that the right VA originated from the right CCA instead of the right SCA. The right SCA was aberrant from the aorta, a PPIA originated from the left external carotid artery and extended posteriorly into the left C1 transverse foramen to connect with the left intracranial VA, and the left extracranial VA was hypoplastic. Our report contributes to the literature concerning the rare variation in the origins of larger vessels located above the aorta. In addition, in our report, the complex anatomy of the neck vessels made establishing a path to access intracranial aneurysms difficult.
