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

We present a case of a partially thrombosed giant aneurysm of the pericallosal artery that experienced a temporary worsening of perianeurysmal edema after clipping. A 66-year-old man presented with progressive weakness of the right leg. Imaging studies revealed a partially thrombosed giant aneurysm at the bifurcation of the left pericallosal artery with concomitant perianeurysmal edema. The aneurysm was thought responsible for the symptoms of the patient, and he agreed to undergo clipping surgery. The aneurysmal neck was clipped using two long aneurysm clips without dissecting the aneurysmal dome. The patient woke up from anesthesia with the right-sided hemiparesis, which progressed to hemiplegia by 12 h after surgery. Brain computed tomography revealed worsening of the perianeurysmal edema. Fortunately, his symptoms resolved completely by 2 weeks after surgery with conservative management. Perianeurysmal edema is frequently observed in patients with partially thrombosed giant aneurysms. Although worsening of perianeurysmal edema is a relatively common complication of endovascular procedures, its occurrence after clipping has rarely been reported. The worsening may have been induced by release of inflammatory cytokines from aneurysm wall, which was rendered ischemic due to obliteration of the vasa vasorum by the clips. Perianeurysmal edema may develop or worsen after clipping of a partially thrombosed giant aneurysm if the interface between the aneurysm and surrounding brain is not fully dissected.
