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

Objective: We report a case of dolichoectatic vertebrobasilar aneurysms treated with multiple low-profile visualized intraluminal support (LVIS) stents followed by flow redirection endoluminal device (FRED) flow diverter to prevent the growth of the thrombosed aneurysm. Case Presentation: A 71-year-old man developed diplopia due to oculomotor nerve palsy after 11 years of follow-up for an enlarging thrombosed dolichoectatic vertebrobasilar artery aneurysm. He initially had a fusiform thrombosed aneurysm from the right vertebral artery to the basilar artery. This lesion was tortuous and strongly compressed the pons. A total of 11 LVISs were deployed from the right posterior cerebral artery to the right vertebral artery. Six months after surgery, there was no enlargement of the thrombosed aneurysm on MRI and the contrast leakage out of the stent was markedly reduced in DSA compared to immediately after surgery. One year and seven months after surgery, contrast leakage out of the stent was increased in DSA. The FRED was placed within the overlapped LVISs, and contrast leakage was somewhat reduced. After 2 years and 7 months from the initial treatment, the contrast leakage was still observed. However, there was no enlargement of the aneurysm and no complications related to treatments were observed. Conclusion: Treatment with multiple LVIS stents followed by FRED flow diverter treatment for dolichoectatic vertebrobasilar aneurysms (DVAs) may be one of the treatment options for controlling the growth of thrombotic aneurysms without complications, but the long-term prognosis of this case is unclear, and careful follow-up is mandatory.
