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

Superficial temporal artery pseudoaneurysms (STA PSAs) are rare vascular lesions typically resulting from blunt trauma. We present the case of an 82-year-old woman on apixaban who developed a massive STA PSA measuring 3.5 cm with overlying skin necrosis and vision changes after a mechanical fall. Urgent surgical ligation, resection, and local tissue rearrangement achieved successful closure and recovery. This case illustrates the potential for delayed growth and natural history of STA PSAs in patients on chronic anticoagulation and emphasizes the importance of timely intervention and multidisciplinary collaboration to optimize outcomes.
