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

objectiveTo report our experience on Neuroform Atlas Y-stenting for coiling of unruptured wide-neck bifurcation aneurysms.

methodsFrom March 2018 to January 2021, we treated 473 aneurysms in 436 patients with coil embolization, of which 15 cases with wide-necked bifurcation aneurysms were treated by Y-stent-assisted coiling with two Neuroform Atlas stents. We retrospectively reviewed the characteristics of patients and aneurysms, procedure-related complications, radiographic results, and clinical outcomes.

resultsAll 15 cases using Neuroform Atlas Y-stenting were successful. Patients included 6 men and 9 women with a mean age ± standard deviation of 56.4±6.6 years. The mean dome and neck sizes were 6.4±3.1 mm and 4.7±1.8 mm, respectively. Immediate post-procedural angiograms showed complete occlusion in 46.7%, neck remnant in 13.3%, and incomplete occlusion in 40% of cases. No treatment-related morbidity or mortality occurred in any patients. All patients had good clinical outcomes (Glasgow Outcome Score 5) at both discharge and during a mean 12.3-month (range 1-28 months) follow-up. All aneurysms showed improved or stable occlusion on follow-up imaging. Further, the latest follow-up angiography showed complete occlusion in 73.3%, neck remnant in 6.7%, and incomplete occlusion in 20%. Conclusions: Y-stent-assisted coiling with Neuroform Atlas stents might be a feasible and safe option for wide-necked bifurcation aneurysms.
