Recovery from Cranial Nerve Symptoms after Flow Diversion without Coiling for Unruptured Very Large and Giant ICA Aneurysms.
Article in AJNR. American journal of neuroradiology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
background and purposeCranial nerve symptoms, including visual impairment and ophthalmoplegia, are one of the most common presentations of very large and giant (≥15 mm) ICA aneurysms. In this study, we evaluated the treatment outcomes of flow diversion and conventional coiling in terms of recovery from cranial nerve symptoms and postoperative complications. MATERIALS AND
methodsSeventy-nine patients with unruptured ICA aneurysms of >15 mm who were treated with flow diversion or conventional coiling between December 2009 and December 2020 were retrospectively evaluated. We compared the radiologic and clinical outcomes, including recovery from cranial nerve symptoms, between the 2 groups.
resultsTwenty-eight of 49 patients (57.1%) treated with flow diversion and 10 of 30 patients (33.3%) treated with conventional coiling initially presented with cranial nerve symptoms (
conclusionsFlow diversion without coiling for very large and giant ICA aneurysms yielded a higher rate of recovery from cranial nerve symptoms, but it may be related to an increased hemorrhagic complication rate, especially for intradurally located aneurysms.
