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

Hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT), also known as Rendu-Osler-Weber syndrome, is an autosomal dominant genetic disorder that interferes with angiogenesis and leads to abnormal vascular development. It presents as mucocutaneous telangiectasia when small or arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) when large. AVMs involve different organs, such as the lungs, brain, liver, spinal cord, and gastrointestinal tract, and can cause various life-threatening complications depending on their location and size. Splenic vascular malformations are rare in patients with HHT and require treatment owing to the risk of rupture and spontaneous hemoperitoneum. This case report details the management of an 8-cm atypical AVM located in the spleen, which was treated with selective transarterial embolization using a liquid embolic agent.
