Coil Embolization of Unruptured Distal Anterior Cerebral Artery Aneurysm Using a Marathon Microcatheter.

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
Marathon is rarely used in coil embolization for an aneurysm; particularly, there have been no reports about distal anterior cerebral artery aneurysms. We have reported a case of successful use of Marathon in coil embolization in case of a distal anterior cerebral artery aneurysm. The patient was an 83-year-old woman. She had undergone coil embolization for an unruptured distal anterior cerebral artery aneurysm, which was discovered by chance. Our initial approach involved the use of a combination of Traxcess and Excelsior SL-10, but the use of SL-10 could not follow Traxcess because the right anterior cerebral artery from the right internal carotid artery had a sharp bifurcation. However, by switching to a combination of TENROU and Marathon, we could access the aneurysm. We thereby decided to continue the use of Marathon in order to complete the coil embolization. In coil embolization for an aneurysm, Marathon was found to be useful, depending on the location of the aneurysm and access route.
