The p48 MW flow modulation device for treatment of unruptured, saccular intracranial aneurysms: a single center experience from 77 consecutive aneurysms.
Article in CVIR endovascular, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundThe p48 MW Flow Modulation Device (phenox, Bochum Germany) is a low profile flow diverter stent (FDS), designed for implantation into intracranial arteries with a diameter of less than 3.5 mm.
objectiveTo evaluate the safety and efficacy of the p48 MW FDS in the treatment of unruptured aneurysms located at intracranial arteries with less than 3.5 mm diameter based on a retrospective analysis from a single tertiary neurovascular center.
methodsA prospectively maintained database was retrospectively reviewed to identify all cases of intracranial saccular aneurysms treated electively with the p48 MW device. Records were made of basic demographics, aneurysmal characteristics, interventional procedures, adverse events, clinical outcomes and occlusion rates on angiographic follow-ups.
resultsA total of 77 aneurysms and 74 patients were included. The mean size of the treated aneurysms was 3.5 ± 2.4 mm and the mean aspect ratio was 1.3 ± 0.4. A total of 80 endovascular procedures were performed with a total of 12 (15%) adverse events leading to two (2.5%) permanent morbidities/mortalities. Technical issues were encountered in 3 (3.9%) cases. Adequate occlusion of the treated aneurysm was recorded in 55.6% and 63.9% on the first and latest available DSA follow-ups, respectively. There were no cases of side-branch occlusion.
conclusionsThe p48 MW is an easy-to-use implant with very good safety margins. Side branch occlusion and significant in-stent stenosis are infrequently encountered. The time from implantation to sufficient aneurysm occlusion takes longer than with FDS with lower porosity.
