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

To clip or coil has been matter of debates for several years and is the domain of interdisciplinary decision making. However, the microsurgical outcome has still been elusive concerning wide neck aneurysms (WNA). A retrospective single center study was performed with all patients with ruptured WNA (rWNA) and unruptured WNA (uWNA) admitted to author´s institute between 2007-2017. Microsurgical outcome was evaluated according to Raymond-Roy occlusion grade and follow-up angiography was performed to analyze the stability of neck/aneurysm remnants and retreatment poverty. Of 805 aneurysms, 139 were rWNA (17.3%) and 148 uWNA (18.4%). Complete occlusion was achieved in 102 of 139 rWNA (73.4%) and 112 of 148 uWNA (75.6%). Neck remnants were observed in 36 patients with rWNA (25.9%) and 30 patients with uWNA (20.3%), 1 (0.7%) and 6 (4.1%) patients had aneurysmal remnant, respectively. Overall complication rate was 11.5%. At follow-up (939/1504 months), all remnants were stable except for one, which was further conservatively treated with marginal retreatment rate under 1%. Even the risk of de-novo aneurysm was higher than the risk for remnant growth (2.6% vs 0% in rWNA; 8.7% vs 5.3% in uWNA) without significant difference. Microsurgical clipping is effective for complete occlusion of r/uWNA with low complication. Furthermore, the risk of remnant growth is marginal even lower than the risk of de-novo rate low retreatment rate.
