Clinical characteristics and individualized treatment of intracranial aneurysms in young adults: a single-center experience.

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
This study aimed to investigate the clinical characteristics of intracranial aneurysms in young adults and summarize our treatment experiences. We performed a retrospective review of young patients (15-24 years old) with intracranial aneurysms examined in the Fifth Ward of the Neurosurgery Department of Tianjin Huanhu Hospital between January 2015 and November 2022. Data was reviewed for age, sex, presentation, type and size, treatment modalities, location, postoperative complications, and clinical and imaging outcomes. Among the 23 patients, there were 11 males and 12 females (1:1.09). Their presentations included headache, neurological deficits, aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage, incidental or asymptomatic aneurysm, and traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage. Twenty-five cases of intracranial aneurysms in 25 patients were identified. The aneurysms were saccular (32%, 8/25), dissecting (52%, 13/25), and fusiform (16%, 4/25) in shape. Treatment modalities included direct clipping, embolization, bypass, trapping, resection, coarctation of internal carotid artery (ICA), and endovascular vessel sacrifice. Of the 25 aneurysms, 16 (64%, 16/25) aneurysms were located in anterior circulation, and 9 (36%, 9/25) were located in the posterior circulation, while multiple aneurysms were identified in two patients. A preoperative magnetic resonance perfusion (MRP) examination was performed in 15 patients with unruptured complex aneurysms, of whom 13/15 (86.67%) showed hypoperfusion. Eighteen (78.26%, 18/23) patients had no postoperative complications, temporary complications occurred in 4 (17.39%, 4/23) patients, and 1 patient died postoperatively. The intracranial aneurysms in young adults (15 ~ 24 years old) are rare. The posterior circulation is more commonly involved than adults, giant and huge aneurysms are frequent, and fusiform and dissecting pathologic features are common. Headache is the most common clinical manifestation. Individualized treatment should be performed, and bypass is an effective treatment for young patients with intracranial aneurysms.
