Review in Frontiers in neurology, 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.

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

Intracranial internal carotid artery (ICA) bifurcation region aneurysms are uncommon. When treatment is necessary for ICA, endovascular treatment (EVT) can be a useful option. Due to the complexity of these aneurysms and the variability of EVT techniques, EVT for ICA bifurcation aneurysms is challenging. Currently, it is necessary to perform a review to explore this issue further. In this review, the following issues were discussed: the anatomy of the ICA bifurcation region; the classification, natural history and EVT status of ICA bifurcation region aneurysms; the technique used for identifying ICA bifurcation region aneurysms; and the prognosis and complications of EVT for ICA bifurcation region aneurysms. According to the review and our experience, traditional coiling is currently the preferred therapy for ICA bifurcation region aneurysms. In addition, in select cases, new devices, such as flow diverters and Woven EndoBridge devices, can also be used to treat ICA bifurcation region aneurysms. Generally, EVT is an alternative treatment option for ICA bifurcation region aneurysms.
