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

Labial arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) pose a great challenge due to their location, angiogenic potential, and recurrence rate. Emerging treatments include sclerotherapy, such as intra-arterial bleomycin, which has been proven safe and effective in adults; however, there is limited literature available for children. Here, we present two successful cases of intra-arterial bleomycin use for treating lip AVMs in children, resulting in complete cure and no recurrence after a two-year follow-up period. Our findings support the limited but growing body of literature that presents intra-arterial bleomycin as a safe and viable option for pediatric facial AVMs.
