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

Transient global amnesia (TGA) is a syndrome characterized by the sudden onset of anterograde amnesia, typically lasting for a few to less than 24 h. This condition is considered benign, as it is usually self-limited and unrelated to brain lesions; however, TGA may less frequently occur due to vascular brain changes. We report a rare case of a 66-year-old male with a diagnosis of recurrent TGA associated with a brain dural arteriovenous fistula (DAVF), alongside the absence of clear triggering and risk factors. He was submitted to embolization and remained event-free until his last attempt, 18 months after the surgical procedure. The case presentation follows a brief literature review on TGA and the pathophysiological mechanisms probably underpinning its occasional correlation with brain DAVF.
