Far-lateral craniotomy for obliteration of foramen magnum dural arteriovenous fistula.
Article in Neurosurgical focus: Video, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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 63-year-old woman with a history of stroke underwent further workup. MRI revealed a region of asymmetrical ASL hyperintensity near the right hypoglossal canal. Angiogram revealed a left foramen magnum region dural arteriovenous fistula supplied by a left V4 vertebral artery branch, with early draining veins into the skull base and left sigmoid sinus. Attempts were made to catheterize the fistula, but it was not amenable to endovascular intervention. A far-lateral craniotomy with C1 hemilaminectomy was performed, with obliteration confirmed on postoperative DSA. At 2-year follow-up, the patient remained at her neurological baseline with no evidence of recurrence. The video can be found here: https://stream.cadmore.media/r10.3171/2025.7.FOCVID2579.
