A Meta-analysis: Cost Comparison of Flow Diversion and Coil Embolization for Intracranial Aneurysm.

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
Background: Intracranial aneurysm serves as a prevalent cerebral disorder leading to the low-quality life and financial burden of the patients. Flow diversion and coil embolization have been confirmed as common therapeutic strategies for intracranial aneurysms. In this work, we identified and compared the cost between the flow diversion and coil embolization in the treatment of intracranial aneurysms in a meta-analysis. Methods: We downloaded literatures that are published before Feb 2021 from Cochrane Library, Embase, and Pubmed using terms including "flow diversion", "pipeline embolization device", "coil embolization", "coiling", "Intracranial aneurysms", and "Cerebral aneurysms". The data were analyzed by STATA 15.1. Differences in treatment costs were determined by WMD (95% CI). Results: A total of 1332 articles were included in the search of the limited terms, and 8 were selected after eliminating duplicate and unwanted studies. Our data indicated that the total cost of flow diversion for intracranial aneurysms is significantly lower than coil embolization (WMD = -4419.12, 95% CI: -6292.21 to -2546.03, Conclusion: We concluded that the total cost was lower, and the retreatment hospitalization costs of flow diversion were higher than coil embolization for the treatment of intracranial aneurysms. Our finding provides valuable insights into the application of flow diversion and coil embolization in intracranial aneurysm therapy. Flow diversion may be applied as a major treatment with the consideration of retreatment.
