Retreatment strategies for recurrent and residual aneurysms after treatment with flow-diverter devices.
Article in Neuroradiology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
purposeThe management of residual or persistent intracranial aneurysms after flow-diversion therapy is not well defined in the literature. In this multicentric study, we report clinical and angiographic outcomes of 11 patients that underwent retreatment for 12 aneurysms initially treated with flow-diverter stents.
methodsThe median patient age was 53 years. Aneurysms (median size, 7.3 mm) were located at the internal carotid artery in 9 cases, and at the posterior circulation in 3. Treatment strategies, complications, and angiographic outcome were retrospectively assessed.
resultsRetreatment was feasible in all cases and performed by overlapping flow-diverter implantation. Overall, 12 side vessels were covered during retreatment, whereof 10 (83.3%) remained patent until mid-term follow-up. There were no further technical or symptomatic complications and no treatment-related morbidity. Angiographic follow-up (median, 17 months) showed improved aneurysm occlusion in all patients. Complete or near-complete aneurysm occlusion was achieved in 11 aneurysms (91.7%).
conclusionRequired retreatment after failed flow-diversion therapy can be performed with adequate safety and efficacy by placement of additional flow-diverter stents.
