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

Flow diverter placement for treatment of intracranial aneurysms gained growing consensus in the past years. A major concern among professionals is the side branch coverage which leads in some cases to vessel occlusion. However, the lost vessel patency only infrequently is accompanied by a new onset of neurological deficits secondary to ischaemic lesions. A retrospective analysis of all patients treated with flow diversion at our hospital was aimed to better understand this phenomenon in order to formulate a hypothesis about the causes. We concluded that vessel occlusion occurs due to a reduced blood pressure gradient in those vessels with a strong collateral or anastomotic vascularization that refurnishes the same distal vascular territories. Indeed, we detected no new brain infarction since blood flow was always guaranteed.
