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

objectivesTo assess 3D T1-SPACE combined with 3D-TOF sequence for follow-up evaluation of stent-assisted coil embolization for intracranial aneurysm. MATERIALS AND

methodsBetween Oct 2018 and May 2019, we enrolled 25 patients with intracranial aneurysm who underwent stent-assisted coil embolization. All patients were followed up for 6 to10 months after endovascular treatment (EVT) using 3D-TOF MRA, 3D T1-SPACE and DSA to evaluate aneurysm occlusion and parent artery patency.

resultsWith regards to aneurysm occlusion, the specificity of 3D-TOF MRA was 86.9% (20/23) and the accuracy was 84% (21/25). There was no statistical significance (P ​= ​0.409) compared with the DSA. The parent artery by 3D-TOF MRA showed that there were 14 patients with grade 3, 8 patients with grade 2 and 3 patients with grade 1. However, 3D T1-SPACE showed that all 25 patients were grade 4, and were clearly displayed without metal artifacts. The comparison of the two MR techniques demonstrated that 3D T1-SPACE was superior to 3D-TOF MRA in the evaluation of parent artery (P<0.001).

conclusions3D T1-SPACE sequence provides better image quality and higher accuracy for evaluating stented parent arteries compared to TOF-MRA. This study also shows that 3D-TOF MRA has a merit to evaluate aneurysm occlusion. The combination of these two modalities can be used as an optional follow-up evaluation after EVT of intracranial aneurysms.
