Delayed Rupture from a Pseudoaneurysm after Mechanical Thrombectomy: A Case Report.
Article in Asian journal of neurosurgery, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Pseudoaneurysm following mechanical thrombectomy (MT) is a rare but possible complication associated with endovascular procedures. This report presents a case of delayed rupture of a pseudoaneurysm after MT with a stent retriever, which was confirmed by open surgery. During hospitalization, an 85-year-old woman had right hemiplegia and aphasia. Magnetic resonance imaging and angiography revealed acute ischemic changes in the left middle cerebral artery because of M2 segment occlusion. MT was performed to address persistent M2 occlusion. Retrieving from distal vessels with the fully deployed Solitaire 4 × 20 mm stent retriever was considered dangerous, we resheathed the stent, but the microcatheter jumped distally. Angiography through microcatheter revealed contrast leakage into the subarachnoid space. The diagnosis was vessel perforation caused by the microcatheter. The lesion was treated with temporary balloon occlusion for 5 minutes using a balloon-guiding catheter, combined with the reversal of heparin anticoagulation by protamine, and a systolic blood pressure reduction to below 120 mm Hg. Anticoagulation was initiated after confirming that postprocedural subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) decreased 1 day after the procedure. Fourteen days after the procedure, computed tomography and angiography revealed a massive hematoma with a newly formed small pseudoaneurysm at the site of vessel rupture. Open surgery was performed to close the small artery rupture using a clip. Delayed rupture of the pseudoaneurysm occurred after MT using a stent retriever. If SAH is observed after MT, performing follow-up computed tomography angiography or magnetic resonance angiography is recommended to consider pseudoaneurysm formation.
