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

Developmental venous anomalies (DVAs) are benign congenital veins that collect normal brain drainage into a single outlet. Cerebral cavernous malformations (CMs) are clusters of thin-walled capillary cavities prone to bleeding. When both lesions coexist, the DVA's altered venous pressure and flow can promote CM formation or rupture. Detecting a DVA abutting an otherwise unexplained intracerebral hemorrhage can therefore raise suspicion of an occult CM as a likely cause, a clue which may be invaluable for daily clinical practice. The main focus of this review is to acknowledge the hallmark imaging appearances of DVAs and CMs, as well as their coexistence, explore the clinical consequences of mixed lesions, and emphasize that recognizing their partnership is vital for an accurate, timely diagnosis and appropriately targeted management.
