Short-term aneurysm formation and rupture due to septic embolism diagnosed with a thrombus retrieved from another occluded artery.

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: In rare cases, septic embolism is diagnosed on the basis of pathological findings of retrieved thrombi. Infected aneurysms can rapidly form and rupture after septic embolism, leading to a poor prognosis. We report a case of subcortical hemorrhage due to an infected aneurysm forming shortly after septic embolism in the left anterior cerebral artery. Case Description: In this case, the diagnosis of septic embolism was made on the basis of pathological findings of a thrombus retrieved from the simultaneously occluded left middle cerebral artery, and endovascular embolization of the infected aneurysm was performed. Conclusion: The pathological findings of a retrieved thrombus were useful for making a diagnosis of septic embolism. The possibility of short-term formation and rupture of an infected aneurysm after septic embolism should be noted. Endovascular embolization of occluded vessels due to septic embolism may prevent aneurysm formation and subsequent bleeding.
