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

Background: Traumatic direct carotid cavernous fistulas results in a direct communication between the internal carotid artery and the cavernous sinus. Covered stents are not frequently used in neuro-endovascular procedures due to concerns primarily about occlusion of perforating vessels. There are however several factors in direct carotid cavernous fistulas that make it more amenable to covered stenting than other diseases treated endovascularly. Methods: Wepresent 2 cases of occlusion of traumatic direct carotid cavernous fistulas utilizing the PK Papyrus stent. Results: In our first case, this device was successfully used as a salvage technique afterfailure of conventional techniques and in the second case it was used as primary treatment. Conclusion: The properties of the PK Papyrus covered stent are promising in overcoming the difficulties of other covered stents and warrants further investigation.
