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

Background: Intracranial vertebrobasilar trunk large (≥10 mm) aneurysms (IVBTLAs) are rare and challenging to manage. In this study, we describe the natural prognosis and evaluate the safety and efficacy of endovascular treatment of IVBTLAs compared with conservative therapy. Methods: This prospective multicenter cohort study included patients with IVBTLAs, who chose either endovascular treatment (endovascular group) or conservative therapy (conservative group) after discussion with their doctors. The primary endpoint was the incidence of serious adverse events (SAEs) related to the target vessel, while secondary endpoints included target vessel-related mortality, major stroke, other serious adverse events, and aneurysm occlusion rate. Results: In total, 258 patients were referred to our two centers for the management of vertebrobasilar aneurysms, and 69 patients had IVBTLAs. Among them, 51 patients underwent endovascular treatment, and 18 patients received conservative therapy. The incidence of target vessel-related SAEs was 15.7% (8/51) in the endovascular group and 44.4% (8/18) in the conservative group ( Conclusions: Compared with conservative treatment, endovascular treatment of the IVBTLAs may be associated with a lower incidence of SAEs, with higher 1-year, 3-year, and 5-year survival rates. Conservative therapy, giant aneurysm, and ischemic onset were associated with a high risk of SAEs.
