Bilateral carotid dissection due to Eagle syndrome: case report.
Article in Jornal vascular brasileiro, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Eagle Syndrome (ES), characterized by elongation of the styloid process (ESP), is a rare condition with diverse symptoms. Among its complications, carotid dissection is a significant outcome requiring accurate diagnosis and intervention. This study describes a case of bilateral carotid dissection associated with ES, emphasizing diagnostic challenges, management, and therapeutic approaches. Conducted under Research Ethics Committee protocol 68193123.5.0000.0119 and approval number 6.028.970, it reports on a 38-year-old woman with a 5-day history of left-sided headache, otalgia, syncope, right-hand limitation, and visual blurring. MRI revealed left carotid bulb occlusion and recent ischemic events, while angio-CT confirmed bilateral carotid dissections. After clinical management failed, an intraoral surgical approach was chosen, resulting in full neurological recovery. CT confirmed ESP, and genetic testing was negative. This case highlights the need to consider ES in atypical cervicofacial symptoms, given its underdiagnosed incidence (~4% for ESP; ~0.16% for ES), reinforcing the importance of better clinical guidelines.
