Delayed leukoencephalopathy following non-coil embolization flow diverter stent deployment for an intracranial aneurysm.
Article in Neuroradiology, 2024. 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
This report examines delayed leukoencephalopathy as a postoperative complication after the use of flow diverter (FD) devices for endovascular cerebral aneurysm treatment. A case involving a 78-year-old female treated with a pipeline embolization device for a left internal carotid artery aneurysm is presented. Despite adherence to dual anti-platelet therapy, the patient developed intermittent headaches and memory issues 3 months post-operation. MRI revealed T1-enhancing foci and T2 hyperintense signal abnormalities in the left cerebral hemisphere, without new ischemic lesions, indicating potential embolic events or foreign body reactions. Following aphasia, a change from clopidogrel to prasugrel and the initiation of steroid pulse therapy led to the resolution of symptoms and MRI abnormalities over 6 months. This case underscores the reversibility of delayed leukoencephalopathy with appropriate intervention.
