Multiple Cervical Arteries Dissection Associated With Fibromuscular Dysplasia: A Case Report.
Article in Clinical case reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Spontaneous cervical artery dissection is a condition often associated with connective tissue diseases, such as fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD), a complex angiopathy primarily affecting medium-sized arteries. While single-vessel dissection is more common, simultaneous involvement of three cervical arteries is rare. We present the case of a 30-year-old female patient who suffered from bilateral cerebellar infarction, subarachnoid hemorrhage, and hydrocephalus, necessitating external ventricular drainage and posterior fossa decompressive craniectomy. Multimodal imaging, including computed tomography angiography (CTA), magnetic resonance angiography (MRA), and digital subtraction angiography (DSA), confirmed the presence of FMD with dissections involving the right internal carotid artery and both vertebral arteries. Following a two-month course of antiplatelet therapy, the patient experienced minimal residual symptoms, enabling independent daily activities. Given that FMD is an underrecognized cause of multiple cervical artery dissections, clinicians should maintain a high index of suspicion when encountering such cases. This case highlights the importance of thorough investigation and management in similar clinical presentations.
