Pediatric Patient With a Giant Vertebrobasilar Dissecting Aneurysm Successfully Treated With Three Pipeline Embolization Devices.
Article in Frontiers in neurology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Pediatric intracranial dissecting aneurysms are rare (1), and treating this type of aneurysm in the vertebrobasilar circulation is more difficult. As an off-label application, pipeline embolization devices (PEDs) for posterior circulation dissecting aneurysms are reported to have good therapeutic effect (2). However, studies have found that PEDs for large or giant vertebrobasilar dissecting aneurysms have a poor effect and are associated with disastrous consequences for patients (3). PEDs are feasible for vertebrobasilar dissecting aneurysms (4); however, few reports discuss using PEDs to span the entire segment of the basilar artery. Because there are more perforating arteries in the basilar artery, it is more prudent to use PEDs in this artery. We report a case of a pediatric patient with a giant vertebrobasilar dissecting aneurysm successfully treated with three PEDs combined with right vertebral artery occlusion, without complications. The patient's headache symptoms resolved fully 3 months after the procedure, and the aneurysm was completely healed and excellent reconstruction of the left vertebral artery was seen 4 months post-procedure, using digital subtraction angiography.
