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

objectiveTo illustrate the added value of flat-detector computed tomography angiography with intravenous contrast media injection (intravenous FDCTA) in the evaluation of complex A1/A2/AcomA aneurysms. PATIENTS AND

methodsWe retrospectively reviewed 15 patients with ruptured aneurysms. In each patient, an intravenous FDCTA was performed and its diagnostic value investigated.

resultsIn all patients, FDCTA contributed relevant additional information concerning the anatomy of the A1/A2/AcomA complex and the relationship of the aneurysm neck to these vascular structures, which could not be gained by 2D- and 3D-DSA, and changed the management in 33% of the patients (5 out of 15). In an additional 5 cases, knowledge of the detailed anatomy was helpful to plan the exact stent position.

conclusionIn case of complex A1/A2/AcomA aneurysms, intravenous FDCTA is an effective option to visualize the exact location of the aneurysm neck and the relationship between the aneurysm and the adjacent vessels. Thus, it is of significant added value in the precise planning of a therapeutic strategy.
