The Analysis of Morphoradiological Parameters in Predicting Risk of Basilar Artery Tip Aneurysm Rupture: A Retrospective Cohort Study.
Article in International journal of general medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
purposeBasilar artery tip aneurysms can have fatal consequences and poor prognostic outcomes in case of rupture. We investigated the standard parameters used to evaluate aneurysmal morphology to predict aneurysm rupture. PATIENTS AND
methodsWe measured the differences between ruptured and unruptured basilar bifurcation aneurysms in terms of morphological features, including aneurysm size, size ratio, aneurysm height, perpendicular height, aneurysm width, bottleneck ratio, aspect ratio, and present daughter domes, using 3D angiography.
resultsAmong 34 patients, 21 (61.8%) and 13 (38.2%) had ruptured and unruptured basilar tip aneurysms, respectively. In the ruptured group, the mean aneurysm size, and aspect, size, and bottleneck ratios were 6.8 ± 1.9 mm, 3.2 ± 1.0, 2.3 ± 0.5, and 2.2 ± 0.4, respectively, compared to 4.5 ± 1.5 mm, 4.4 ± 2.0, 1.6 ± 0.4, and 2.7 ± 0.7, respectively, in the non-ruptured group. Univariate analysis showed a larger aneurysmal cross-sectional diameter (odds ratio [OR], 0.50; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.5-5.392; p < 0.05), a larger size ratio (OR, 21.375; 95% CI, 3.283-139.177; p < 0.05), and presence of a daughter dome (OR, 72.0; 95% CI, 6.7-776.5; p < 0.05) with ruptured basilar artery tip aneurysms.
conclusionA larger aneurysm size and size ratio, and the presence of a daughter dome were significantly associated with increased rupture risk in basilar tip aneurysms.
