Treatment of Acutely Ruptured Cerebral Aneurysms With the Woven EndoBridge Device: Experience Post-FDA Approval.

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
backgroundCoil embolization of ruptured bifurcation aneurysms is challenging and often necessitates adjunctive stenting, which requires antiplatelet therapy in the setting of subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). The Woven EndoBridge (WEB; Terumo) device is an alternative self-expanding 3D mesh that does not require antiplatelet agents. However, its use has been mostly reserved for unruptured aneurysms.
objectiveTo assess the safety and feasibility of ruptured aneurysm treatment with the WEB.
methodsRetrospective analysis of 9 SAH patients with 11 aneurysms that were treated with the WEB device at 2 institutions after FDA approval.
resultsHunt and Hess grades were III and IV in 4 (44%) each and V in 1 (11%). All patients were treated within 24 h of hospitalization, and a single WEB was used in all but one aneurysm. Aneurysms treated were 3 basilar tip, 2 anterior communicating artery, 2 posterior inferior cerebellarartery, 1 middle cerebral artery, 1 carotid-ophthalmic artery, 1 posterior communicating artery, and 1 vertebrobasilar junction. Mean aneurysm height and width were 6.2 ± 2.2 mm (range: 3-10) and 5.6 ± 3.0 mm (range: 3.3-14), respectively. Mean dome-to-neck ratio was 1.7 ± 0.8 (range: 1.0-3.8). There was one intraoperative rupture that occurred because of device dislodgement and was managed with embolization. There were no treatment-related mortalities and no re-rupture after securement of the aneurysms with the WEB.
conclusionOur preliminary experience indicates that the WEB device can be used safely for ruptured aneurysms of various sizes in the anterior and posterior circulation. Larger series with long-term follow-up are necessary to confirm our findings.
