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

Large cerebral aneurysms are considered more dangerous than their smaller counterparts, with higher risk of subarachnoid hemorrhage. Understanding the hemodynamics of large aneurysms has potential to predict their response to treatment. Digital subtraction angiography images for patients with intracranial aneurysms over a seven-year period were reviewed. Unruptured solitary aneurysms of the internal carotid artery (ICA) proximal to the terminus and posterior communicating artery were included. Contrast intensity over time was analyzed at the center of the M1 segment of the middle cerebral artery distal to the aneurysm and compared to the contralateral side. Analysis included time to peak (TP)
