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

background and purposeThe Woven EndoBridge (WEB) device is an established technique for the treatment of intracranial aneurysms. Occasionally, persistent opacification inside the WEB lumen can be observed at follow-up (previously described as Bicêtre Occlusion Scale Score 1). We evaluated potential risk factors of this phenomenon, hypothesizing that initial deviation of the WEB device from the aneurysm axis, size of the aneurysmal neck surface, or inappropriate WEB sizing correlates with Bicêtre Occlusion Scale Score 1 findings. MATERIALS AND

methodsWe systematically reviewed all patients treated with the WEB device between February 2014 and December 2018 in our neurointerventional center. Patients with midterm follow-up DSA available were considered for aneurysm evaluation applying the Bicêtre Occlusion Scale Score. WEB angle deviation from the aneurysm axis, neck widths, and WEB sizes were collected.

resultsWe included 65 patients with 67 intracranial aneurysms. Eleven of 67 (16.4%) intracranial aneurysms showed the Bicêtre Occlusion Scale Score 1 phenomenon at follow-up. Anterior-posterior projections of WEB axis deviation (angles measured in degrees) were significantly different between the Bicêtre Occlusion Scale Score 1 cohort (median ± interquartile range, 17 ± 17) and all other Bicêtre Occlusion Scale Scores (median ± interquartile range, 7 ± 11;

conclusionsThe Bicêtre Occlusion Scale Score 1 phenomenon is associated with an initial deviation of the WEB device from the aneurysm axis but does not correlate with aneurysmal neck surface measurements or WEB sizing.
