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

Traumatic arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs) occur in up to 30 % of cases involving the cervical region, with the concomitant presence of AVF and pseudoaneurysm being a rare but clinically significant condition. This case report describes a 32-year-old male victim of a stab wound in Zone II of the right cervical region, who presented with a palpable thrill and subcutaneous emphysema. Cervical computed tomography angiography (CTA) revealed a pseudoaneurysm of the right common carotid artery and an AVF with the right internal jugular vein. The patient underwent successful endovascular repair using a covered stent, achieving complete resolution of the condition without any neurological or functional deficits. This case underscores the rarity of traumatic AVFs associated with pseudoaneurysms and emphasizes the importance of a systematic evaluation in penetrating cervical trauma. Additionally, it shows CTA as a crucial non-invasive diagnostic tool and demonstrates the effectiveness of endovascular treatment as a safe, minimally invasive, and highly efficient alternative to conventional surgical approaches.
