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

backgroundNeuroendovascular therapy is typically performed via the femoral artery, but there are rare cases in which a tortuous upstream angioarchitecture makes it difficult to access the intracranial circulation via this route.

methodsIn this case series, we describe six cases treated by surgical cut-down in the neck, with puncture of the carotid artery. Antiplatelet and anticoagulation agents were used in all cases. The indications for the technique were postsurgical thoracic aortic aneurysm (two cases), postsurgical abdominal aortic aneurysm (one case), major vessel tortuosity of the common carotid artery (two cases) and aortic arch anomaly (one case).

resultsThe surgical cut-down technique permitted successful neuroendovascular therapy. Although one patient had a small cervical haematoma, he was treated without surgical evacuation.

conclusionOverall, our findings indicate that the surgical cut-down technique is safe and useful for patients in whom the femoral approach is unsuitable.
