pCONus Device for the Endovascular Treatment of Wide-Neck Middle Cerebral Artery Aneurysms.

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
background and purposeEndovascular treatment of bifurcation middle cerebral artery aneurysms with a wide neck could be challenging, and many lesions are still treated by a surgical approach. The pCONus is a newly emerging device for wide-neck bifurcation intracranial aneurysms. To date, a single report on the treatment of intracranial aneurysms including all locations has been published. We report our experience with pCONus in the treatment of wide-neck MCA aneurysms. MATERIALS AND
methodsMCA aneurysms treated with pCONus in 4 European centers were retrospectively reviewed.
resultsForty MCA aneurysms (mean dome size, 7.7 mm; mean neck size, 5.6 mm) were treated in 40 patients (mean age, 62 years). Aneurysm coiling was performed after deployment of 1 pCONus in 95% (38/40) of cases and after deployment of 2 pCONus devices in 5% (2/40). No procedural angiographic complications were observed. Reversible neurologic complications were noted in 5% (2/40), and permanent neurologic complication, in 2.5% (1/40) at 1 month. There was no mortality. No aneurysms bled or rebled after treatment. Immediate angiographic results were complete aneurysm occlusion in 25% (10/40), neck remnant in 47.5% (19/40), and aneurysm remnant in 27.5% (11/40). Follow-up (mean, 6.8 months) was available for 33 aneurysms (82.5%). Stable or improved results were observed in all except 3 cases, including 48.5% complete occlusions (16/33), 30.3% neck remnants (10/33), and 21.2% aneurysm remnants (7/33). There was no in-stent stenosis or jailed branch occlusion. There was no angiographic recurrence of initially totally occluded aneurysms.
conclusionsMCA aneurysms with a wide neck are amenable to treatment with pCONus.
