Lessons from Vessel Wall Imaging of Intracranial Aneurysms: New Era of Aneurysm Evaluation beyond Morphology.
Review in Neurologia medico-chirurgica, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 papers.
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.
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
Recent basic studies have clarified that aneurysmal wall inflammation plays an important role in the pathophysiology of intracranial aneurysms. However, it remains an interdisciplinary challenge to visualize aneurysm wall status in vivo. MR-vessel wall imaging (VWI) is a current topic of advanced imaging techniques since it could provide an additional value for unruptured intracranial aneurysms (UIAs) risk stratification. With regard to ruptured intracranial aneurysms, VWI could identify a ruptured aneurysm in patients with multiple intracranial aneurysms. Intraluminal thrombus could be a clue to interpret aneurysm wall enhancement on VWI in ruptured intracranial aneurysms. The interpretation of VWI findings in UIAs would require much caution. Actually aneurysm wall enhancement in VWI was significantly associated with consensus morphologic risk factors. However, aneurysmal wall with contrast enhancement oftentimes associated with atherosclerotic, degenerated and thickened wall structure. It remains ill defined if thin wall without wall enhancement (oftentimes invisible in VWI) could be actually safe or look over wall vulnerability. We reviewed currently available studies, especially focusing on VWI for intracranial aneurysms and discussed the clinical utility of VWI.
