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

objectivesThe present article aimed to review the safety and the clinical and radiological outcomes of clipped ruptured and unruptured anterior circulation aneurysms. MATERIALS AND

methodsThe study investigated the relative articles involving the outcome after surgical management of ruptures versus unruptured anterior circulation aneurysms through electronic databases from January 1980 to January 2023. The primary outcomes were mortality and modified Rankin scale (mRS) >3.

resultsInformation on mRS >3 was found in six articles totalizing 2096 patients, of whom 130 subjects had ruptured and unruptured aneurysms. Data about mortality was provided by eight studies totalizing 2454 participants, of whom 140 subjects had ruptured and unruptured aneurysms.

conclusionsThe current meta-analysis indicates that surgical clipping is a safe procedure for both ruptured and unruptured aneurysms of anterior circulation.
