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

objectiveThis retrospective study was performed to evaluate the feasibility and safety of surgically clipping intracranial aneurysms using a transcranial neuroendoscopic approach.

methodsA total of 229 patients with cerebral aneurysms were included in our study, all of whom were treated with clamping surgery at Wuhan University People's Hospital. They were divided into neuroendoscopic and microscopic groups, according to whether or not neuroendoscopy was used for the clamping surgery. We statistically analyzed the patients' baseline data, surgical outcomes, and complications, which were then evaluated to assess the treatment effect.

resultsThe baseline characteristics were not statistically significant, except for gender, for which the proportions of female patients in the two groups were 69 (56.1%) and 46 (43.4%). There were no patients with incomplete aneurysm clamping or parent vessel occlusion in the neuroendoscopic group, and there were 4 (3.8%) and 2 (1.9%) in the microscopic group, respectively; however, there was no statistically significant difference in the comparison of the two groups. The mean operative times of the two groups were 181 min and 154 min, respectively, and were statistically different. However, the mRS scores of the two groups showed no significant difference in patient prognosis. The differences in complications (including limb hemiplegia, hydrocephalus, vision loss, and intracranial infection) were not statistically significant, except for cerebral ischemia, for which the proportions of patients in the two groups were 8 (6.5%) and 16 (15.1%).

conclusionsNeuroendoscopy can provide clear visualization and multi-angle views during aneurysm clipping, which is helpful for ensuring adequate clipping and preventing complications.
