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

objectiveTo compare the safety, efficacy and complications of LVIS stent-assisted coil embolization and Solitaire stent-assisted coil embolization for management of intracranial wide-neck carotid aneurysms.

methodsWe retrospectively analyzed the data of 86 patients with intracranial wide-neck carotid aneurysm treated in our hospital between June, 2016 and June, 2019. Forty-three of the patients received LVIS stent-assisted coil tamponade and the other 43 received Solitaire stentassisted coil tamponade. Arteriography was performed during, immediately after, and at 3 months after the surgery. The immediate embolization rate, surgical complications (vascular spasm, acute thrombus, coil escape, and bleeding), and the recurrence rate were compared between the two groups.

resultsIn the LVIS stent group, 37 aneurysms were completely embolized, 5 were nearly fully embolized, and 1 was partially embolized, as compared with the numbers of 35, 6, and 2 in the Solitaire stent group, respectively. Surgery-related complications occurred in 5 patients in LVIS stent group and 3 in Solitaire stent group. Follow-up digital subtraction angiography (DSA) at 3 months after the operation revealed 4 recurrent aneurysms, including 1 in LVIS group and 3 in Solitaire stent group. All the patients had favorable outcomes that did not differ significantly between the two groups.

conclusionsStent-assisted spring coils can achieve a high rate of complete and near-total embolization for intracranial aneurysms and is associated with a low incidence of neurological complications and favorable prognosis of the patients. The embolization rate, complications and recurrence rate are comparable between LVIS stent and Solitaire stent.
