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

Middle cerebral artery (MCA) aneurysm is a serious medical condition mainly occurring in the proximal and bifurcation tracts. Evidence has indicated that endovascular treatment is an effective surgical method for patients with MCA aneurysm. In the present study, the efficacy of endovascular treatment with low-profile visualized intraluminal support (LVIS) stent for MCA aneurysms was evaluated in comparison with that using a non-LVIS stent device. A total of 92 patients who underwent endovascular treatment of MCA aneurysms with LVIS stent or non-LVIS stent were included in the present study. The clinical presentation, aneurysmal characteristics, technical feasibility, procedural complications, as well as angiographic and clinical follow-up results were analyzed. The computed tomography scan demonstrated that endovascular treatment with LVIS stent markedly reduced pre-operative and intra-operative ruptures. It was indicated that endovascular treatment with LVIS stent resulted in less post-operative symptoms and cases of disability according to the modified Rankin scale score. In conclusion, the present outcomes provide evidence that endovascular treatment with an LVIS stent is an efficient method for the treatment of MCA aneurysm.
