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

background and purposeRupture risk of intracranial aneurysms may depend on hemodynamic characteristics. This has been assessed by comparing hemodynamic data of ruptured and unruptured aneurysms. However, aneurysm geometry may change before, during, or just after rupture; this difference causes potential changes in hemodynamics. We assessed changes in hemodynamics in a series of intracranial aneurysms, by using 3D imaging before and after rupture. MATERIALS AND

methodsFor 9 aneurysms in 9 patients, we used MRA, CTA, and 3D rotational angiography before and after rupture to generate geometric models of the aneurysm and perianeurysmal vasculature. Intra-aneurysmal hemodynamics were simulated by using computational fluid dynamics. Two neuroradiologists qualitatively assessed flow complexity, flow stability, inflow concentration, and flow impingement in consensus, by using flow-velocity streamlines and wall shear stress distributions.

resultsHemodynamics changed in 6 of the 9 aneurysms. The median time between imaging before and after rupture was 678 days (range, 14-1461 days) in these 6 cases, compared with 151 days (range, 34-183 days) in the 3 cases with unaltered hemodynamics. Changes were observed for flow complexity (n = 3), flow stability (n = 3), inflow concentration (n = 2), and region of flow impingement (n = 3). These changes were in all instances associated with aneurysm displacement due to rupture-related hematomas, growth, or newly formed lobulations.

conclusionsHemodynamic characteristics of intracranial aneurysms can be altered by geometric changes before, during, or just after rupture. Associations of hemodynamic characteristics with aneurysm rupture obtained from case-control studies comparing ruptured with unruptured aneurysms should therefore be interpreted with caution.
