Safety and efficacy of pipeline embolization device treatments for intradural internal carotid artery aneurysms in a single center in a Japanese population.

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: The pipeline embolization device (PED) is the most common flow diverter device in the world. To date, there have been no reports of treatment outcomes specific to intradural internal carotid artery (ICA) aneurysms. The safety and efficacy of the PED treatments for intradural ICA aneurysms are reported. Methods: 131 patients with 133 aneurysms underwent PED treatments for intradural ICA aneurysms. The mean aneurysm dome size and neck length were 12.7 ± 4.3 mm and 6.1 ± 2.2 mm, respectively. We used adjunctive endosaccular coil embolization for 88 aneurysms (66.2%). A total of 113 aneurysms (85%) were angiographically followed up 6 months following the procedure, and 93 aneurysms (69.9%) were followed up for 1 year. Results: The angiographic outcome at 6 months showed that 94 (83.2%) aneurysms had O'Kelly-Marotta (OKM) grade D, 6 (5.3%) had C, 10 (8.8%) had B, and 3 (2.7%) had A. At 1 year, 82 (88.2%) aneurysms had OKM grade D, 6 (6.5%) had C, 3 (3.2%) had B, and 2 (2.2%) had A. Multivariate analysis showed that aneurysm neck size and adjunctive coiling were statistically significant in aneurysm occlusion status. Major morbidity modified Rankin Scale >2 and mortality rates related to procedures were 3.0% and 0%, respectively. Delayed aneurysm ruptures were not observed. Conclusion: These results reveal that PED treatment of intradural ICA aneurysms is safe and efficacious. The combined use of adjunctive coil embolization not only prevents delayed aneurysm ruptures but also contributes to an increase in the rate of complete occlusion.
