Endovascular treatment of ruptured dissecting posterior inferior cerebellar artery aneurysms.
Article in Interventional neuroradiology : journal of peritherapeutic neuroradiology, surgical procedures and related neurosciences, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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
Dissecting aneurysms of the posterior inferior cerebellar artery (PICA) distal to its origin from vertebral artery (VA) are very rare. Although rare, they associated with a high risk of rebleeding and they present a therapeutic challenge. This study reviewed the clinical presentations, angiographic characteristics of dissecting aneurysms of the PICA and to assess the clinical and angiographic outcomes of patients who underwent endovascular treatment. Ten patients with ten dissecting aneurysms who underwent endovascular treatment were identified in the clinical records of a single medical center from January 2000 to December 2010. The mean follow-up duration was 2.8 years. All patients presented with subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). They all underwent endovascular treatment, which included occlusion of the dissected segment and the parent artery after detailed angiographic evaluation of the vascular anatomy, and test occlusion of the PICA. In all patients the endovascular treatment was successfully completed without procedure related complications. Long-term follow-up studies in seven out of ten patients showed complete occlusion of the aneurysm with no new neurologic deficits. The clinical outcome was good in eight cases, whereas two patients with poor clinical condition at admission died during their initial hospital stay. Endovascular occlusion of the parent vessel and the dissected segment is relatively safe treatment option for dissecting aneurysms of the PICA distal to its origin.
