Management of unruptured brain aneurysms: retrospective analysis of a single centre experience.
Article in The neuroradiology journal, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 2 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
Embolization is very effective in preventing bleeding of unruptured aneurysms with lower rates of mortality and morbidity than surgical treatment. Neurosurgery remains, however, a good alternative. This retrospective analysis examined data stored the digital database of Bellaria Hospital Radiology Department, evaluating patients, treatments and devices used as well as outcomes and complications. Therapy should be tailored to each individual case to offer each patient the best treatment. Out of 265 unruptured intracranial aneurysms detected, 182 were treated by embolization. 16 cases presented complications (12 only radiologically found); severe clinical consequences occurred in 3%: one ischaemia and five haemorrhages. Conservative treatment was adopted in 21 patients. Long-term follow-up is mandatory as aneurysms could increase their size and develop an irregular morphology in ten years' time. Endovascular embolization is a very effective treatment with positive outcomes in the majority of cases and a percentage of retreatments of 8%. In order to increase the number of successful cases, a multidisciplinary cooperation with neurosurgeons is strongly recommended.
