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: Moyamoya disease (MMD) is characterized by the compensatory development of collateral vasculature. Aneurysm formation on collaterals is common. The rupture of these aneurysms is associated with a poor prognosis, which presents significant treatment challenges. Case Description: We encountered two cases of distal choroidal artery aneurysm rupture in MMD. The first case experienced re-rupture and underwent superselective embolization. However, this case was complicated by an intraoperative rupture and subsequent hydrocephalus. The second case underwent parent artery occlusion without complications. Conclusion: These cases highlight both efficacy and the risks involved. Lesion accessibility is crucial. A careful evaluation of collaterals and precise planning are required.
