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

Introduction: The present study aimed to investigate the application of the aneurysm embolization microcatheter plasticity method based on computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to simulate cerebral blood flow in the interventional treatment of posterior communicating aneurysms in the internal carotid artery and to evaluate its practicality and safety. Methods: A total of 20 patients with posterior internal carotid artery communicating aneurysms who used CFD to simulate cerebral flow lines from January 2020 to December 2022 in our hospital were analyzed. Microcatheter shaping and interventional embolization were performed according to the main cerebral flow lines, and the success rate, stability, and effect of the microcatheter being in place were analyzed. Results: Among the 20 patients, the microcatheters were all smoothly placed and the catheters were stable during the Conclusion: Microcatheter shaping based on CFD simulation of cerebral blood flow, with precise catheter shaping, leads to a high success rate in catheter placing, stability, and good support, and greatly reduces the difficulty of catheter shaping. This catheter-shaping method is worthy of further study and exploration.
