Radiation dose and fluoroscopy time of modern endovascular treatment techniques in patients with saccular unruptured intracranial aneurysms.
Article in European radiology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 22 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
objectivesModern endovascular treatment of unruptured intracranial aneurysms (UIAs) demands for observance of diagnostic reference levels (DRLs). The national DRL (250 Gy cm
methodsA retrospective single-centre study of saccular UIAs treated between 2015 and 2019. Regarding dosimetric analysis, the parameters dose area product (DAP) and fluoroscopy time were investigated for the following variables: endovascular technique, aneurysm location, DSA protocol, aneurysm size, and patient age.
resultsEighty-seven patients (59 females, mean age 54 years) were included. Total mean and median DAP (Gy cm
conclusionsThis UIA study establishes novel local DRLs for modern endovascular techniques such as FD and WEB. A low-dose protocol yielded a significant reduction of radiation dose. KEY POINTS: • This paper establishes local diagnostic reference levels for modern endovascular treatment techniques of unruptured intracranial aneurysms, including flow diverter stenting and Woven EndoBridge device. • Dose area product was not significantly different between endovascular techniques and aneurysm locations, but associated with aneurysm size and patient age. • A low-dose protocol yielded a significant reduction of dose area product and is particularly useful when applying materials with a high radiopacity (e.g. platinum coils).
