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

purposeVarious adjunctive devices have been reported to be helpful during the endovascular coiling of complex, wide-necked cerebral aneurysms. This study aimed to describe the utilization of a recently introduced intrasaccular neck-bridging implant specifically designed to facilitate coil embolization.

methodsWe retrospectively reviewed eight consecutive patients who underwent treatment for intracranial aneurysms with the Nautilus intrasaccular bridging system between February 2022 to May 2022. We evaluated the angiographic appearances of treated aneurysms at the end of the procedure and early follow-up, the clinical status and complications.

resultsEight patients with eight cerebral aneurysms (3 men and 5 women, mean age 52.8 years (range 39-66) were analyzed. Five of the treated aneurysms were managed in an acute case scenario. There were no technical difficulties while executing the technique. No other procedural adverse events were documented. Immediate complete occlusion of the aneurysm was seen in 6 patients, neck remnant in 1 and stable aneurysm reperfusion in one case. Early radiological follow-up was available in five patients, and the observed occlusion rates were - RR class I in all radiologically screened aneurysms.

conclusionNautilus-assisted coil embolization represents a rapid and safe solution for complex cerebral aneurysms. In our opinion this device symbolizes a significant step forward in treating intracranial aneurysms. We believe that the technique's actual value consists of the fact that the device is fully compatible with the modern low-profile microcatheter technology and does not involve the need for antiplatelet medications.
