Evaluation of short- and long-term results of Y-stent-assisted coiling with Leo stents in endovascular treatment of wide-necked intracranial bifurcation aneurysms.

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
purposeThis study aimed to evaluate the feasibility, safety, and efficacy of Y-stent-assisted coiling (Y-SAC) using LEO Baby® stents in treating of bifurcation aneurysms.
methodsPatients who underwent Y-SAC using a braided stent (LEO Baby®, Montmorency, France) for wide-necked intracranial aneurysms between 2009 and 2019 and whose radiological and clinical follow-up data for at least 6 months could be obtained were evaluated. Data were obtained from patient records and analyzed retrospectively.
resultsWe evaluated 111 patients with a mean age of 56.0 ± 10.8 years (range, 25-88 years). Most of the aneurysms were detected incidentally. Three patients had ruptured aneurysms. LEO Baby deployment and coiling were successful in all patients. Immediate aneurysm occlusion rates were determined as modified Raymond-Roy classification (mRRC) I 95.5% (n = 106), mRRC II 3.6% (n = 4), mRRC IIIa 0.9% (n = 1). In the sixth month, aneurysm occlusion rates were found to be complete and nearly complete in all patients (mRRC I 94.6%, n = 105 and mRRC II 4.5%; n = 5, respectively). Follow-up data of 91 patients for > 2 years were obtained. Of these, 88 had MRRCI obstruction and 3 had MRRC II obstruction. The overall complication rate was 4.8%, and one patient died during the post-procedural follow-up.
conclusionThe long-term follow-up results of Y-stenting with LEO Baby revealed that it provides stable closure of the aneurysm sac while preserving the main arterial structures. Therefore, it is a safe, durable, and effective method for treating wide-necked and complex bifurcation aneurysms.
