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: Stents have been widely used for coil embolization for intracranial aneurysms. Few studies have analyzed the risk factors of recanalization through long-term follow-up observation of only stent-assisted coiling. We analyzed the risk factors for recanalization through long-term observations. Methods: A total number of 399 unruptured aneurysms treated by stent-assisted coil embolization between 2003 and 2016 in a single institution were analyzed for determining the factors associated with recanalization including the patient characteristics, aneurysms, and procedural variables. All patients underwent angiographic follow-up with digital subtraction angiography or magnetic resonance angiography at 24 months or more following the procedure. Results: Recanalization occurred in 8%. The mean time for the recanalization was 21.1 ± 14.0 months (range, 5-51 months). The receiver operating characteristic curve analysis indicated areas under the curve for a maximum aneurysm size of 0.773 (cut-off, 6.415 mm). Multivariate analysis revealed that the maximum aneurysm size and parent artery curvature at which the aneurysm developed were significantly associated with recanalization. In parent artery curvature, the bifurcation group (OR, 9.02; 95% CI, 2.53-32.13; Conclusion: The maximum aneurysm size and parent artery curvature are risk factors associated with recanalization in stent-assisted coil embolization.
