Co-occurring scalp arteriovenous malformation and dural arteriovenous fistula with diploic vein involvement: illustrative case.
Article in Journal of neurosurgery. Case lessons, 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
backgroundScalp arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) with co-occurring dural arteriovenous fistulas (dAVFs) are a rare combination of vascular pathologies. The additional presence of diploic veins has not yet been documented in the literature. The authors present the first such case and its clinical management accompanied by a review of reported concomitant scalp AVMs and dAVFs in the literature. OBSERVATIONS: A young woman presenting with a large scalp deformity, diplopia, visual decline, and recurrent epistaxis was found to have a co-occurring scalp AVM and dAVF with diploic vein involvement. Combined endovascular therapy and open resection permitted safe removal of the scalp AVM and obliteration of the dAVF. The patient was discharged on postoperative day 6 without complication. LESSONS: A combined approach of endovascular therapy for local control, supplemented by surgical ligation and resection, can yield excellent outcomes in these instances. https://thejns.org/doi/10.3171/CASE26533.
