Ruptured anterior communicating artery aneurysm associated with internal carotid artery absence.

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.
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
A 67-year-old male presented with sudden headache and decreased consciousness, diagnosed as spontaneous subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Imaging revealed an anterior communicating artery (ACoA) aneurysm and congenital absence of the left internal carotid artery (ICA), confirmed by the absence of the carotid canal. The aneurysm was surgically clipped. Postoperative angiography demonstrated that the left anterior and middle cerebral arteries were perfused via collateral flow from the posterior circulation. The patient made a full recovery. Congenital ICA absence is rare but significantly alters cerebral hemodynamics, especially within the circle of Willis, predisposing patients to aneurysm formation. This case underlines the importance of vascular imaging in patients with SAH and highlights the need for urgent diagnosis and intervention in the presence of congenital vascular anomalies.
