Endovascular coil embolization of very small intracranial aneurysms.

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
introductionEndovascular coil embolization of very small (maximum dome diameter ≤3 mm) aneurysms is controversial because of a high risk for procedural rupture and technical difficulty. We report clinical and angiographic results of coil embolization of these aneurysms.
methodsFrom August 2005 through July 2009, 43 very small aneurysms (23 ruptured, 20 unruptured) in 38 patients (12 males, 26 females; mean age, 53 years) were embolized with detachable coils. Of those 38 patients, 24 (63%) presented with subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) from a very small aneurysm (n = 23) or another aneurysm (n = 1). We assessed initial angiographic results, procedural complications, and clinical condition with initial Hunt and Hess grade (HH) and Glasgow outcome scale (GOS) at discharge. Follow-up results were evaluated with conventional angiography and/or magnetic resonance angiography (MRA).
resultsInitial aneurysmal occlusion was total in 16 (37%), subtotal in 22 (51%), and partial in five (12%) aneurysms. There were five incidents of thrombosis (12%) and one procedural rupture (2%), but there was no definite adverse effect on clinical outcome. Of 24 patients with SAH, ten patients (42%) were in poor condition (HH 3 or 4) at admission. Seventeen of 24 patients (71%) had good or excellent outcome (GOS ≥4) at discharge. A 6-month or more follow-up angiography and/or MRA was available in 33 (11 total and 20 subtotal and 2 partial in initial occlusion) aneurysms (77%) in 28 patients and revealed stable occlusion in 20 aneurysms (61%), progressive total occlusion in 10 (30%), minor recanalization in 2 (6%), and major recanalization in 1 (3%).
conclusionsCoil embolization of very small aneurysms may be technically feasible with favorable clinical/angiographic outcomes and relatively low recanalization rate during 6 months or more follow-up period.
