Successful use of an LVIS device to treat unruptured distal aneurysm of the superior cerebellar artery at a vascular bifurcation.

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: Aneurysms of the distal superior cerebellar artery (SCA) account for only a small proportion of all cerebral aneurysms. Reports of the use of flow diverters (FDs) started to appear in 2013. We obtained good results from placement of a low-profile visualized intraluminal support device (LVIS) to treat unruptured distal aneurysm of the SCA at a vascular bifurcation. Case Description: A 65-year-old man presented at our hospital with sudden peripheral facial nerve palsy and suspected subarachnoid hemorrhage. Investigational cerebral angiography revealed an aneurysm at the bifurcation of the caudal and rostral trunks of the SCA. An LVIS was placed with the aim of obtaining flow diversion, and cerebral angiography 6 months after this procedure showed disappearance of aneurysm with preservation of the distal SCA. Conclusion: Twelve cases of the use of FDs to treat aneurysms of the SCA have been reported previously. However, none of those reports described FD use to treat an aneurysm at a vascular bifurcation, as in the present case. Our results suggested that LVIS placement with the aim of obtaining flow diversion may be useful for the treatment of aneurysms at such sites.
