Case report: Endovascular coil embolization of an aneurysm at the origin of the accessory middle cerebral artery from the A1 segment as the collateral artery to twigs.
Article in Frontiers in neurology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
An aneurysm at the origin of the accessory middle cerebral artery (AccMCA) from the A1 segment of the anterior cerebral artery (ACA) as the supplying artery of a twig-like MCA is exceptional. In this study, we reported on such a case and presented a review of the relevant literature. A 56-year-old male suffered a subarachnoid hemorrhage. Digital subtraction angiography confirmed a twig-like MCA and a ruptured aneurysm at the origin of the AccMCA. Endovascular coil embolization of the aneurysm was performed. After the microcatheter was positioned in the aneurysm, soft coils were delivered to complete the embolization. Postoperatively, the patient recovered uneventfully. One month later, the patient returned to his job without any neurological deficits. Postoperative computed tomography at the 3-month follow-up showed that the brain tissue was normal. By reporting our case and reviewing the relevant literature, we found that endovascular coil embolization for such aneurysms at the AccMCA origin is feasible in certain cases.
