Embolization of visceral arterial aneurysms: Simulation with 3D-printed models.

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
objectivesThe present technical article aimed to describe the efficacy of three-dimensional (3D)-printed hollow vascular models as a tool in the preoperative simulation of endovascular embolization of visceral artery aneurysms.
methodsFrom November 2015 to November 2016, four consecutive endovascular treatments of true visceral artery aneurysms were preoperatively simulated with 3D-printed hollow models. The mean age of the patients (one male and three females) was 54 (range: 40-71) years. Three patients presented with splenic artery aneurysm and one with anterior pancreaticoduodenal artery aneurysm. The average diameter of the aneurysms was 16.5 (range: 10-25) mm. The 3D-printed hollow models of the visceral artery aneurysms and involved arteries were created using computed tomography angiography data of the patients. After establishing treatment plans by simulations with the 3D-printed models, all patients received endovascular treatment.
resultsAll four hollow aneurysm models were successfully fabricated and used in the preoperative simulation of endovascular treatment. In the preoperative simulations with 3D-printed hollow models, splenic aneurysms were embolized with coils and/or
conclusionsSimulation with 3D-printed hollow models can help establish an optimal treatment plan and may improve the safety and efficacy of endovascular treatment for visceral artery aneurysms.
