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: Predicting rupture risk is important for aneurysm management. This research aimed to develop and validate a nomogram model to forecast the rupture risk of posterior communicating artery (PcomA) aneurysms. Methods: Clinical, morphological, and hemodynamic parameters of 107 unruptured PcomA aneurysms and 225 ruptured PcomA aneurysms were retrospectively analyzed. The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) analysis was applied to identify the optimal rupture risk factors, and a web-based dynamic nomogram was developed accordingly. The nomogram model was internally validated and externally validated independently. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to assess the discrimination of nomogram, and simultaneously the Hosmer-Lemeshow test and calibration plots were used to assess the calibration. Decision curve analysis (DCA) and clinical impact curve (CIC) were used to evaluate the clinical utility of nomogram additionally. Results: Four optimal rupture predictors of PcomA aneurysms were selected by LASSO and identified by multivariate logistic analysis, including hypertension, aspect ratio (AR), oscillatory shear index (OSI), and wall shear stress (WSS). A web-based dynamic nomogram was then developed. The area under the curve (AUC) in the training and external validation cohorts was 0.872 and 0.867, respectively. The Hosmer-Lemeshow Conclusion: Hypertension, high AR, high OSI, and low WSS were the most relevant risk factors for rupture of PcomA aneurysms. A web-based dynamic nomogram thus established demonstrated adequate discrimination and calibration after internal and external validation. We hope that this tool will provide guidance for the management of PcomA aneurysms.
