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

We report a rare case of an aneurysm originating from the penetrating artery of the distal middle cerebral artery (MCA). A 76-year-old man without a notable past history presented with sudden-onset severe headache, left hemiparesis, and a decreased level of consciousness. Computed tomography (CT) revealed subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) in the right temporal lobe extending into the ventricle. Contrast-enhanced CT (CE-CT) demonstrated a focus of contrast enhancement (CE) adjacent to the hematoma in the right frontal lobe. An aneurysm fed by a penetrating artery branching off from the right distal MCA was found on angiography. The patient underwent emergency resection of the aneurysm and hematoma evacuation. Histological analysis revealed that arterial dissection may be an associated factor in the pathogenesis of this peripheral aneurysm formation. A focus of CE within or adjacent to the hematoma may be useful for diagnosing this peripheral aneurysm. ICH can result in a life-threatening situation. Therefore, microsurgery may be the first treatment choice for aneurysms in this location.
