Dissection of superficial temporal artery for STA-M4 bypass, an integrated method. How I do it.
Article in Acta neurochirurgica, 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
backgroundExtracranial-intracranial (EC-IC) bypass is an effective revascularization technique for flow augmentation in conditions including Moyamoya disease and ischemic cerebrovascular disorders. Preparation of donor vessel is a key step for EC-IC Bypass surgery. This procedure involves careful dissection and liberation of the Superficial Temporal Artery with subsequent anastomosis to branches of the middle cerebral artery re-establishing flow.
methodsThis article outlines a comprehensive surgical strategy, emphasizing anatomical considerations, procedural nuances, and integration of different schools of dissection with video demonstration making it didactically efficient.
conclusionCombined technique for STA dissection is fast, effective and ideal to avoid complications or adverse events.
