Treatment of a dissecting vertebral artery aneurysm with angioplasty and the pipeline embolisation device.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
A 49-year-old woman was admitted with Hunt and Hess grade 1 subarachnoid haemorrhage. A cerebral aneurysm of the intracranial left vertebral artery (VA) distal to the left posterior inferior cerebellar artery (PICA) was found and treated using parent vessel occlusion with coils. The PICA was preserved. Angiography at three time points during her hospitalisation showed a normal right VA. Eight months later, angiography demonstrated a new 14 mm right VA dissecting aneurysm with 90% outflow stenosis and recurrence of the left VA aneurysm distal to the coils. A Marksman microcatheter would not traverse the stenosis despite the use of two intraluminal wires. Following Gateway balloon (1.5 mm × 9 mm) angioplasty, the Marksman passed easily. The pipeline embolisation device (PED) was successfully deployed across the aneurysm and 11 coils placed through a trapped microcatheter. The patient was discharged home 2 days later. Eighteen-month follow-up has revealed complete resolution of both aneurysms.
