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

introductionThe purpose of this study was to evaluate morphological factors associated with rupture in anterior communicating artery (AcomA) aneurysms and to investigate the significance of AcomA fenestration as a risk factor for aneurysm rupture.

methodsThe clinical and radiologic findings of 255 patients with AcomA aneurysms treated with coil embolization between January 2005 and March 2014 were retrospectively reviewed. We performed univariate and multivariate analyses to evaluate the associations between morphological variables and rupture status.

resultsThe number of patients with AcomA fenestration was 17 out of 255 (6.6 %). There were no statistically significant differences between the fenestration group and non-fenestration group in clinical and morphological characteristics. Multivariate logistic regression tests showed that superior direction of aneurysm dome (OR 2.802, p = 0.023), presence of a bleb (OR 5.998, p < 0.001), high aspect ratio (OR 3.138, p = 0.009), size greater than 7 mm (OR 3.356, p = 0.013), and AcomA fenestration (OR 4.135, p = 0.026) were significantly associated with AcomA aneurysm rupture.

conclusionsThe results of this study demonstrated that a fenestrated AcomA is associated with risk of aneurysm rupture. Therefore, AcomA fenestration can be considered as an important morphological risk factor for rupture, along with other known risk factors such as the direction of aneurysm dome, a bleb, high aspect ratio, and size.
