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

Background: Long-term follow-up of cerebral aneurysms treated with the Silk Vista Baby (SVB) flow diverter is lacking. This study aimed to assess the technical success, procedural safety, and efficacy of the SVB (Balt, Montmorency, France) for the treatment of intracranial aneurysms in small cerebral vessels over a mid-to long-term follow-up. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed a prospectively maintained database of patients treated with the SVB between September 2018 and June 2021. Data regarding patient demographics, aneurysm characteristics, and technical procedures were also collected. Angiographic and clinical findings were recorded during the procedure and over a period of at least 12 months. Results: Angiographic and clinical follow-up data were available for 50 patients/50 aneurysms. The procedural complication rate was 8%. At 12 months, the final results showed a technical success rate of 100%, the re rupture rate was 0%, neuromorbidity and mortality rates of 4 and 0%, respectively, and an almost complete occlusion rate of 94%. Conclusion: Treatment of complex intracranial aneurysms with the SVB was safe and effective. Long-term results showed high rates of adequate and stable occlusions.
