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

The paraophthalmic segment of the internal carotid artery (ICA) originates from the distal border of the cavernous ICA and terminates at the posterior communicating artery. Aneurysms arising from the paraophthalmic segment represent ~5-10% of intradural aneurysms. Due to the advent of endovascular treatment (EVT) techniques, specifically flow-diverting stents (FDSs), EVT has become a good option for these aneurysms. A literature review on EVT for paraophthalmic segment aneurysms is necessary. In this review, we discuss the anatomy of the paraophthalmic segment, classification of the paraophthalmic segment aneurysms, EVT principle and techniques, and prognosis and complications. EVT techniques for paraophthalmic segment aneurysms include coil embolization, FDSs, covered stents, and Woven EndoBridge devices. Currently, coiling embolization remains the best choice for ruptured paraophthalmic segment aneurysms, especially to avoid long-term antiplatelet therapy for young patients. Due to the excessive use of antiplatelet therapy, unruptured paraophthalmic segment aneurysms that are easy to coil should not be treated with FDS. FDS is appropriate for uncoilable or failed aneurysms. Other devices cannot act as the primary choice but can be useful auxiliary tools. Both coiling embolization and FDS deployment can result in a good prognosis for paraophthalmic segment aneurysms. The overall complication rate is low. Therefore, EVT offers promising treatments for paraophthalmic segment aneurysms. In addition, surgical clipping continues to be a good choice for paraophthalmic segment aneurysms in the endovascular era.
