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

introductionThe purpose of this retrospective review was to present our experience in using the Solitaire™ AB Neurovascular Remodeling Device in the stent-assisted treatment of intracranial aneurysms, focusing on midterm results. To date, this is the largest series using the Solitaire™ AB Neurovascular Remodeling Device.

methodsFrom February 2008 to December 2010, 102 patients harboring 104 wide-necked or complex intracranial aneurysms were consecutively enrolled. Forty-five patients presented with an acute subarachnoid hemorrhage. Stent implantation was combined with a standard coiling procedure in 100 patients; in 13 of them, by bailout stenting. On average, at least one clinical and angiographic follow-up was available in 63 patients after 6.3 months. Forty-nine patients were followed for up to 13.6 months.

resultsOf the stents, 98.4 % could be deployed successfully. A Raymond class 1 occlusion was obtained in 51 % of the aneurysms, a Raymond class 2 occlusion in 44 %, and in the remaining 5 % a Raymond class 3 occlusion was obtained. Procedure-related morbidity was 3.9 % (n = 4) and procedure-related mortality was 2.9 % (n = 3). During the follow-up period, 39.2 % of the aneurysms showed further thrombosis, 45.1 % remained unchanged, and 15.7 % recanalized. In the follow-up clinical examination according to the modified Rankin Scale, 16.3 % of all patients presented with clinical improvement, 73.5 % were unchanged, and 10.2 % of patients deteriorated.

conclusionConsidering that stent-assisted coiling is indicated in unfavorable aneurysms, which are not amenable to standard coiling procedures, the Solitaire AB stent proved to be an efficient and safe device in midterm angiographic and clinical follow-up results.
