Treatment strategies of ruptured posterior inferior cerebellar artery aneurysm according to its segment.
Article in Surgical neurology international, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers.
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
backgroundThe aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical outcomes between endovascular treatment (EVT) and surgery of the ruptured posterior inferior cerebellar artery (PICA) aneurysms and suggest proper management strategies according to the PICA segment.
methodsWe retrospectively analyzed clinical and radiological data of patients with ruptured PICA aneurysms who underwent surgery or EVT from three different institutes. Clinical outcomes were evaluated by mRS.
resultsWe collected 39 consecutive patients with 39 ruptured PICA aneurysms; 26 patients were with proximal segment aneurysm and 13 patients were with distal. Of the 26 proximal PICA aneurysms, 20 aneurysms were treated with EVT and 6 aneurysms were treated with surgery. EVT seemed to have more favorable clinical outcome (mRS 0-2; mean mRS, 1.75 for EVT vs 3.50 for surgery,
conclusionsFor the treatment of ruptured PICA aneurysms, EVT seemed to have more favorable outcomes for proximal segment, while surgery showed more favorable outcomes for distal segment. Additional experience and follow-up are needed in a larger series to state the efficacy of this strategy.
