Procedural complications of coiling of ruptured intracranial aneurysms: incidence and risk factors in a consecutive series of 681 patients.
Article in AJNR. American journal of neuroradiology, 2006. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 66 papers, 5 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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 and purposeTo report the incidence of procedural complications of coiling of ruptured intracranial aneurysms leading to permanent disability or death in a consecutive series of 681 patients and to identify risk factors for these events. PATIENTS AND
methodsBetween January 1995 and July 2005, 681 consecutive patients with ruptured intracranial aneurysms were treated with detachable coils. Procedural complications (aneurysm rupture or thromboembolic) of coiling leading to death or neurologic disability at the time of hospital discharge were recorded. For patients with procedural complications, odds ratios (OR) with corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated for the following patient and aneurysm characteristics: patient age and sex, use of a supporting balloon, aneurysm location, timing of treatment, clinical condition at the time of treatment, and aneurysm size.
resultsProcedural complications occurred in 40 of 681 patients (5.87%; 95% CI, 4.2% to 7.9%), leading to death in 18 patients (procedural mortality, 2.6%; 95% CI, 1.6% to 4.2%) and to disability in 22 patients (procedural morbidity, 3.2%; 95% CI, 2.0% to 4.9%). There were 8 procedural ruptures and 32 thromboembolic complications. The use of a temporary supporting balloon was the only significant risk factor (OR, 5.1; 95% CI, 2.3 to 15.3%) for the occurrence of procedural complications.
conclusionProcedural complication rate of coiling of ruptured aneurysms leading to disability or death is 5.9%. In this series, the use of a temporary supporting balloon in the treatment of wide-necked aneurysms was the only risk factor for the occurrence of complications.
