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

backgroundEclipse 2L is a new double lumen balloon microcatheter for neurovascular use, with several design features that separate it from previous generation devices. We aimed to report our initial experience of balloon-assisted coiling of intracranial aneurysms using the Eclipse 2L balloon. MATERIALS AND

methodsRetrospective single-center review of patients who underwent balloon-assisted coiling with the Eclipse 2L balloon, for ruptured or unruptured intracranial aneurysms between 1 June 2016 and 31 December 2018. Cases with adjunctive use of stents and recurrences of previously embolized aneurysms were excluded. Patient files were used to extract aneurysm characteristics, complications, immediate and long-term results.

resultsWe identified 120 patients with 126 aneurysms, of which 83 (65.8%) unruptured. Average aneurysm size was 5.9 mm (standard deviation 3.2 mm), with a dome-to neck-ratio of 1.7 (SD 0.6). Most aneurysms (79.3%) were wide necked. Immediate angiographic exclusion (Raymond-Roy grade I-II) was obtained in 95.1% of cases (81.7% grade I and 13.4% grade II). Procedural morbidity was 3.2% with no procedural mortality. Follow-up imaging was available for 115 aneurysms (91.2%). After an average follow-up period of 8.9 months (SD 7.3 months), 96.5% of aneurysms presented class I-II occlusion. Two aneurysms (1.7%) were retreated during follow-up.

conclusionBalloon-assisted coiling using the Eclipse 2L double lumen balloon is feasible for aneurysms in a wide range of locations in the anterior and posterior circulation. The angiographic results and complication rates compare favorably with previously published studies.
