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

backgroundWide-necked aneurysms of the posterior communicating artery associated with a fetal posterior cerebral artery that arises from the neck or dome of the aneurysm is a clinical scenario that poses a challenge to endovascular methods. CASE DESCRIPTION: A patient presented with spontaneous subarachnoid hemorrhage and was found to have a 4 × 3 × 3 mm posterior communicating artery aneurysm. Of note the aneurysm projected superiorly and a fetal posterior communicating artery aneurysm arose from the neck of the aneurysm. After multidisciplinary discussion a treatment strategy of endovascular stent-assisted coiling was chosen. Given the unique morphology of the aneurysm a novel stent-inversion maneuver was used, in which the stent was deployed from the posterior communicating artery into the distal supra-clinoid internal carotid artery. The patient tolerated the procedure well and complete aneurysm occlusion was achieved.

conclusionsThis case demonstrates a novel stent inversion technique that can be used for stent-assisted coiling of certain challenging aneurysms.
