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

Arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs) involving the middle meningeal artery (MMA) and middle meningeal vein were initially described in 1951. Middle meningeal arteriovenous fistulas (MMAVFs) are rare abnormalities classified as dural AVFs, connecting the MMA to the nearby dural venous sinus or cortical veins. Clinical symptoms of MMAVFs include pulsatile tinnitus, headache, exophthalmos, chemosis, and diplopia. Moreover, MMAVFs pose the risk of catastrophic cerebral hemorrhage. Previous studies have suggested that endovascular embolization using coils or other embolic materials produces acceptable outcomes including symptom relief and bleeding prevention. We present a case of traumatic MMAVF in a 27-year-old male with pulsatile tinnitus. The MMAVF was eliminated via endovascular transarterial embolization using a coil, without any residual symptoms or complications. These results suggest that endovascular embolization may be effective in managing MMAVF.
