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

purposeThe low-profile visualized intraluminal support junior (LVIS Jr.) is a new generation low-profile braided stent. Our aim was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the LVIS Jr. in the stent-assisted coiling of unruptured middle cerebral artery (MCA) aneurysms. This was a multicenter retrospective study. Patient demographics, aneurysm characteristics, procedural details, complications, and the results of clinical and imaging follow-up were analyzed. Four centers participated in the study. A total of 162 consecutive patients with 162 unruptured MCA aneurysms were included for the analysis. The mean aneurysm size was 7.6 mm (range 2 to 37 mm) and 97.5% were wide-necked. Immediate postprocedural angiograms showed Raymond-Roy class 1 in 118 (72.8%), class 2 in 23 (14.2%), and class 3 in 21 patients (13%). Periprocedural complications occurred in 14 patients (8.6%). There were no procedure-related deaths. Follow-up imaging at 12-18 months post-procedure showed Raymond-Roy class 1 in 132 (81.5%), class 2 in 17 (10.5%), and class 3 in 13 patients (8%). There were 3 cases of in-stent stenosis (1.9%). All 162 patients had good clinical outcome (mRS score 0-2) at 90 days post-procedure. Stent-assisted coiling of unruptured MCA aneurysms with the LVIS Jr. stent is safe and effective, with high immediate and long-term total occlusion rates.
