Recovery of oculomotor nerve palsy after endovascular treatment of ruptured posterior communicating artery aneurysm.

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
purposeOculomotor nerve palsy (ONP) may result from Posterior communicating artery (Pcom) aneurysms. Endovascular treatment of ruptured Pcom aneurysms generally is a safe procedure, but the effect of this therapy on ONP is incompletely elucidated. This retrospective study evaluates outcomes of ONP after endovascular treatment for ruptured Pcom aneurysm and with the intention to clarify predictors of recovery.
methodsFrom May 2010 to October 2015, 210 patients with Pcom aneurysms underwent endovascular treatment at our institution. Among them, 34 patients with ruptured aneurysms and either complete or incomplete ONP were identified. The outcomes and predictors of ONP recovery were analyzed.
resultsAt the last available clinical follow-up, ONP resolution was complete in 21 (61.8%) patients and incomplete in 8 (23.5%) patients. The mean resolution time after embolization was 24.5 days. Five patients showed no signs of ONP recovery. In no case was an initial incomplete ONP observed to worsen. There was a statistically insignificant trend toward complete recovery among patients with initial incomplete ONP (OR = 4.17; 95% CI, 0.75-23.18; P = 0.103).
conclusionEndovascular treatment appears to be an effective treatment modality for ruptured Pcom aneurysm and related ONP. The initial incomplete ONP might encourage complete ONP recovery after endovascular treatment.
