Article in Interventional neuroradiology : journal of peritherapeutic neuroradiology, surgical procedures and related neurosciences, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
backgroundRecently, a novel intrasaccular device (contour neurovascular system, contour) was introduced to treat intracranial aneurysms. Contour is placed at thе aneurysm neck and reduces the intraaneurysmal blood inflow. Contour comes in a range of sizes to target different aneurysms. The efficiency of altering flow with contour and the effect of device size have not yet been investigated. Therefore, we studied the effect of the device size with patient-based aneurysm models using 2D digital subtraction angiography (DSA).
methodsThree patient-based aneurysm models with necks ranging from 2.7 to 9.7 mm were produced, providing standardized testing conditions. Contours with diameters of 5, 11, and 14 mm were implanted into the models, four of each size. 2D DSA images were acquired before and after implanting contour (15 frames/s, manual contrast injection). After injecting angiographic contrast agent, the DSA signal was recorded over time to calculate the contrast washout time (WOT), which is a measure of flow diversion efficiency.
resultsAll contour devices caused contrast agent stasis and increased WOT in aneurysm sac (
conclusionThe 5-mm contour showed the longest WOT value in our study, while no apparent difference between 11-mm contour and 14-mm contour was found.
