Use of the Neuroform Atlas stent for wide-necked cerebral aneurysms.
Article in Scientific reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
To investigate the effect and safety of the Neuroform Atlas (NFA) stent in stent-assisted coiling of wide-necked intracranial aneurysms, patients with wide-necked intracranial aneurysms were retrospectively enrolled and treated with the NFA stent-assisted coiling. The modified Rankin scale (mRS) grades and Raymond grades were used to assess the clinical outcomes and aneurysm occlusion degrees, respectively, after embolization and at follow-up. Totally, 122 patients were enrolled with 129 wide-necked aneurysms, and forty-nine (40.2%) patients experienced subarachnoid hemorrhage. A total of 134 NFA stents were deployed in all patients. Immediately after endovascular embolization, the Raymond grade was I in 112 (86.8%), II in 8 (6.2%), and III in 9 (7.0%). Complications occurred in 7 (5.7%) patients, including stent displacement in 2 (1.6%) patients, thrombosis and cerebral infarction in 4 (3.3%), and death in 1 (0.8%). Clinical follow-up was performed in 113 (92.6%) patients 6-30 (mean 21) months after embolization, with the mRS grade 0 in 99 (87.6%) patients, 1 in 7 (6.2%), 2 in 5 (4.4%), and 3 in 2 (1.8%). Good prognosis (mRS ≤ 2) was achieved in 111 (98.2%) patients while poor prognosis (mRS > 2) in two (1.8%). Digital subtraction angiography was conducted in 98 (80.3%) patients with 104 (80.6%) aneurysms 6-30 (mean 21) months after embolization. The Raymond grade was grade I in 94 (90.4%) aneurysms, II in 4 (3.8%), and III in 6 (5.8%). Compared with the Raymond grades immediately after embolization, 93 (89.4%) aneurysms disappeared, 9 (8.7%) remained unchanged in the occlusion status, and 2 (1.9%) were recurrent. In conclusion, the NFA stent may have a high aneurysm occlusion rate and a low complication rate in assisting coiling of wide-necked intracranial aneurysms even though further studies are necessary to prove this.
