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

introductionBlister and dissecting aneurysms may have a different pathological background but they are commonly defined by instability of the vessel wall and bear a high risk of fatal rupture and rerupture. Lack of aneurysm sack makes treatment challenging. PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to assess the safety and feasibility of endovascular treatment of intracranial blister and dissecting aneurysms.

methodsWe retrospectively analysed all patients with ruptured and unruptured blister and dissecting aneurysms treated endovascularly between 2004-2018. Procedural details, complications, morbidity/mortality, clinical favourable outcome (modified Rankin Scale ≤2) and aneurysm occlusion rates were assessed.

resultsThirty-four patients with endovascular treatment of 35 aneurysms (26 dissecting aneurysms and 9 blister aneurysms) were included. Five aneurysms were treated by parent vessel occlusion, and 30 aneurysms were treated by vessel reconstruction using stent monotherapy (

conclusionTreatment of blister and dissecting aneurysms developed from coil embolization to flow diversion with multiple stents to the usage of flow diverting stents. Results using modern flow diverting stents encourage us to effectively treat this aneurysm entity endovascularly by vessel reconstruction. Therefore, we recommend preference of vessel reconstructive techniques to parent vessel occlusion.
