Stent-assisted coiling of wide-necked intracranial aneurysms using the Solitaire AB stent.
Article in Journal of neurosciences in rural practice, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
contextStent-assisted coiling of wide-necked and complex intracranial aneurysms is an effective and feasible treatment option. The self-expanding, fully retrievable Solitaire AB (eV3, Irvine, CA, USA) stent is the latest neurovascular remodeling device available. To the best of our knowledge, there are no studies of Solitaire AB-assisted coiling of wide-necked intracranial aneurysms from India.
aimSolitaire AB-assisted coiling of wide-necked intracranial aneurysms. MATERIALS AND
methodsThe study was conducted in a tertiary care center with a dedicated Interventional Neurology division from 2009 to 2013. Consecutive patients with wide-necked aneurysms who underwent coiling assisted by the Solitaire AB stent were enrolled in the study. Axium 3D and Helix (eV3, Irvine, CA, USA) platinum coils were used to densely pack the aneurysm sac after deploying the stent across the neck. All patients were pretreated with antiplatelets according to protocol. Subsequently, dual antiplatelets were given for 6 months followed by continued aspirin. Outcome was assessed at 3 months using the modified Rankin Scale. STATISTICAL ANALYSIS USED: Statistical analysis was done using the SPSS 17.0 software.
resultsA total of 16 patients underwent stent-assisted coiling. The most common site was the internal carotid artery (nine patients), median aneurysm size was 7 mm and median neck diameter was 5 mm. Thirteen patients presented with ruptured aneurysms. We achieved complete occlusion in all patients with no major complications. Thirteen patients were followed up, all have an mRS score of zero or one.
conclusionWe conclude that for wide-necked aneurysms, stent-assisted coiling using the Solitaire AB is a safe and effective treatment option.
