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

The development of dural arteriovenous fistulas (DAVFs) following treatment of a direct carotid-cavernous fistula (CCF) is extremely rare. We report the first case of multifocal DAVF formation at distinct anatomical sites after direct CCF treatment. A 76-year-old woman underwent successful endovascular therapy for a traumatic right-sided direct CCF. One month post-embolization, angiography revealed DAVFs at the left cavernous sinus and right inferior petrosal sinus. The left cavernous sinus DAVF was treated with transvenous embolization, while the asymptomatic right inferior petrosal sinus DAVF underwent spontaneous regression. Clinicians should maintain long-term vigilance following direct CCF treatment, as multiple DAVFs may develop at distant anatomical sites.
