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
Background: Capillary malformation-arteriovenous malformation of the auricular and periauricular region, and its treatment are rarely reported. This study aims to describe the effectiveness and safety of endovascular embolization for capillary malformation-arteriovenous malformation of the auricular and periauricular region in pediatric patients. Methods: A total of nine pediatric patients with auricular and periauricular capillary malformation-arteriovenous malformation treated by endovascular embolization from August 2020 to July 2024 were enrolled in this study. Transcatheter angiography was performed under digital subtraction angiography fluoroscopy. Then, endovascular embolization was performed under digital subtraction angiography monitoring. A second arteriography was performed to confirm the effectiveness of embolization. If not satisfactory, additional embolization was performed until the blood flow in the target vessel slowed significantly. Patients were followed up for changes in symptoms. Results: A total of 22 endovascular embolization sessions were performed in nine children, with an average of 2.4±0.8 sessions per case. After a median follow-up of 8.0 months, all nine cases were effectively treated, while only one patient had obvious symptom rebound one week after operation because the degree of embolization in the first treatment was relatively mild. No obvious complications were observed in any of the patients. Conclusions: Endovascular embolization for capillary malformation-arteriovenous malformation of the auricular and periauricular regions in pediatric patients is safe and effective.
