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: To investigate the safety and outcomes of endovascular embolization and craniotomy clipping in the treatment of cerebral aneurysms. Methods: We collected the clinical data of 106 patients with cerebral aneurysm who underwent surgical treatment (endovascular embolization, Group-A, n=55; craniotomy clipping, Group-B, n=51) in the First People's Hospital of Yichang from January 2020 to May 2021. We compared surgical treatment indexes, treatment costs, neurological function before and after the treatment, incidence of postoperative complications and the prognosis after one-year follow-up between the two groups. Results: Endovascular embolization (Group-A) was associated with a shorter mean operation time and hospital stay, a lower mean intraoperative bleeding amount, and a higher mean treatment cost than craniotomy clipping (Group-B) ( Conclusion: Endovascular embolization for the treatment of cerebral aneurysms is safe as it can shorten the operation time and hospital stay, reduce the incidence of neurological injury and complications, and have a favorable prognosis. However, the treatment is more expensive. Endovascular embolization can be selected for the treatment of cerebral aneurysms when economic conditions allow it.
