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

Intraosseous arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are rare conditions characterized by the development of AVMs within bones, leading to a variety of symptoms. Temporal bone AVMs are exceedingly uncommon, as evidenced by the small number of reported instances in the medical literature. A 19-year-old male patient presented with persistent seizures that were unresponsive to pharmacological treatments administered over three years. Imaging revealed a non-enhancing lesion measuring 31 × 22 mm in the right temporal lobe, originating from the middle fossa and the right petrous apex. The patient underwent successful surgical resection of the lesion, with no intraoperative complications or postoperative neurological deficits. Diagnosis of AVM was made after intraoperative pathological investigation. Follow-up examinations showed a complete resolution of the patient's seizures. The management of these lesions is challenging and it requires personalized approaches, which depend on clinical presentation, lesion location, progression, and the patient's overall condition.
