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

Rete-like collateral is rare in humans, especially at posterior circulation. This case report explores the direct resection of a ruptured aneurysm associated with the bilateral rete-like collateral artery of posterior inferior cerebellar artery (PICA). The aneurysm was successfully treated by surgical resection. This case highlights the importance of recognizing this unusual vascular anatomy and demonstrates that microsurgical resection of ruptured aneurysm associated with bilateral anomalous posterior inferior cerebellar anastomotic arteries was an effective treatment and careful consideration of the anatomical characteristics concerning the interesting aneurysm and the variant PICA was critical for sate treatment.
