Return to work after surgical clipping versus endovascular treatment for ruptured intracranial aneurysms - A nationwide registry-based study.
Article in PloS one, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
objectivesThe aim of this study was to assess return to work following aneurysmal subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH) and compare working status after open surgical clipping and endovascular treatment.
methodsThis nationwide registry-based study included all adult patients in working age treated for a ruptured intracranial aneurysm in Norway between 2008 and 2018 who had a record of sickness leave on the day of treatment. Data from The Norwegian Patient Registry and The Norwegian Labour and Welfare Administration were linked on an individual level. Daily sickness and disability benefits recipiency one year preoperatively to one year postoperatively was analysed. Return to work after endovascular treatment and surgical clipping was compared.
results183 patients were included in the study. Among patients who worked at one year preoperatively, 57% had returned to work one year after treatment. Mean number of days from treatment to the first day back at work in a continuous 3-month working period was 298 (95% CI: 276-321) vs. 319 (95% CI: 299-339) for patients who underwent endovascular treatment compared to patients treated with clipping (p = 0.365). Older patients were less likely to return to work after treatment (hazard ratio 0.977 per year of age, 95% CI 0.956-1.000, p = 0.046). There was no significant association between return to work and patient sex or location of the aneurysm.
conclusionsAneurysmal SAH profoundly affects patient working status. This study found no significant difference in time to return to work after treatment between patients treated with endovascular techniques compared to patients undergoing open surgery.
