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
backgroundDespite increasing acceptance of endovascular coiling for treating anterior communicating artery (ACoA) aneurysms, anterior circulation cerebral infarction (ACI) after embolization remains a limitation. With higher incidence, higher morbidity and higher mortality, it is one of the main factors influencing the ACoA aneurysms prognosis. Determining the risk factors leading to ACI after embolization will have clinical significance. Through retrospective case analysis, this study investigated the risk factors related to ACI after embolization in order to provide information to serve the clinical practice. MATERIALS AND
methodsA retrospective review was performed of patients who had undergone coiling of ACoA aneurysms from 2008 to 2012. All patients had ruptured prior to the completion of embolization. Cases with acute stroke symptoms without alternative diagnoses after embolization were diagnosed as ACI. A total of 32 risk factors such as age, sex, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, modified Fisher grade, Hunt-Hess grade, ventricular hemorrhage, etc. were analyzed using univariate and logistic regression analysis.
resultsUnivariate analysis showed that negative fluid volume balance (P = 0.041 <0.05) and modified Fisher grade (P = 0.049 <0.05) reached statistical significance, suggesting that they might be risk factors for ACI after embolization. Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that modified Fisher grade was significantly associated with ACI after embolization, suggesting that it was an independent risk factor (odds ratios (OR): 4.968, 95% confidence intervals (CI): 1.013-24.360, P = 0.048).
conclusionModified Fisher grade is an independent risk factor for ACI after embolization.
