1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

We describe the clinical presentation, radiological findings, treatment and outcomes of three patients with delayed leukoencephalopathy occurring after endovascular treatment (EVT) for cerebral aneurysms-a rare, albeit recurring, complication. The symptoms occurred 6 to 12 months following the EVT of the cerebral aneurysm. Characteristic imaging findings included high-signal changes on T2 images in the white matter without diffusion restriction predominantly at the distribution of the vascular territory of the catheterized arteries, coupled with patchy gadolinium enhancement or low susceptibility weighted imaging (SWI) signals within the white-matter lesions. Steroid pulse therapy is the treatment of choice and promptly improves clinical and imaging findings. Tapering or cessation of steroids may result in clinical and imaging relapses; close- and long-term follow-up for patients presenting this complication is warranted.
