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

Endovascular coiling for intracranial aneurysms has become an accepted treatment with good clinical results and provides adequate protection against rebleeding and rupture of aneurysms. However, despite the experience, preparation, or skill of the physician, complications during endovascular treatment still occur. The main complications of endovascular coiling are: procedural aneurysmal perforations by the microcatheter, micro-guidewire, or coil, and thromboembolic events. Such situations are unexpected, complex, and can have devastating consequences. In this article, we present a comprehensive review of the two most common complications, aneurysmal perforation and thromboembolism during endovascular coiling, and how we can prevent or overcome these complications to achieve a satisfactory outcome. In addition, as the flow diverter has been become an important tool for management of large, wide necked, and other anatomically challenging aneurysms, we also describe complications stemming from the use of the tool, which remains a novel treatment option for complex aneurysms.
