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

clinical problemThe treatment of intracranial wide-necked bifurcation aneurysms-which account for approximately 26-36% of all brain aneurysms-can be challenging both endovascularly and surgically, as a complete cut-off of the blood flow into the aneurysm should be achieved without disruption of the flow into the bifurcation vessels. Intrasacular flow disruption with the Woven-EndoBridge (WEB) is an innovative technique for the treatment of such aneurysms. This review article discusses various aspects of the treatment of intracranial aneurysms with the WEB device, including indications, aneurysm/device selecting strategies, antiplatelet therapy requirements, procedural technique and potential complications. PRACTICAL RECOMMENDATIONS: Intrasacular flow disruption with the WEB device is a safe and effective treatment method for intracranial wide-necked bifurcation aneurysms, especially for patients with ruptured aneurysms, in patients with contraindications for antiplatelet therapy, and for patients in whom clipping is associated with high risks.
