Double-Balloon-Assisted Coiling for Wide-Necked Posterior Communicating Artery Aneurysms with a Fetal-Type Variant of the Posterior Cerebral Artery: A Case Series.
Article in Neurointervention, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Endovascular treatment for wide-necked posterior communicating artery (PcomA) aneurysms with a fetal-type variant of the posterior cerebral artery (PCA) is often challenging. Since the complete occlusion rates achieved with the currently available treatment methods are unsatisfactory, we aimed to study the effectiveness of a double-balloon-assisted technique for these aneurysms. From September 2014 to August 2020, 6 consecutive patients with PcomA aneurysms with fetal-type PCAs and no previous treatment were treated with this technique at our institution (3 ruptured cases and 3 unruptured cases). The indication for this technique is that the neck of the aneurysm should significantly and broadly incorporate both the internal carotid artery and fetal-type PCA, such that a single-balloon remodeling and single stent would be inadequate to protect both the arteries. In all patients, the fetal-type PCAs were preserved without a stent and with adequate occlusion status. This double-balloon technique can be effective in the treatment of these aneurysms.
