Efficacy analysis of endovascular treatment for ruptured internal carotid artery pseudoaneurysm hemorrhage in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma after radiotherapy.

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
Background: This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and complications of endovascular treatment for hemorrhage caused by ruptured internal carotid artery pseudoaneurysms following radiotherapy in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) patients. Methods: This study retrospectively analyzed NPC patients who underwent endovascular treatment for ruptured internal carotid artery pseudoaneurysm hemorrhage after radiotherapy at Zhongshan People's Hospital from January 2016 to December 2022. The study aims to assess the postoperative hemostasis rate, postoperative rebleeding rate, complication rate, and 1-year postoperative survival rate. Results: During the study period, 36 patients underwent endovascular treatment, of which 24 patients underwent embolization of the internal carotid artery and 12 patients underwent stenting of the internal carotid artery. The procedure success rate was 100%. The rebleeding rate at 1 year after the procedure was 5.6% (2/36, one patient with stent placement and one patient with coil embolization), and the complication rate was 11.1% (4/36, four patients with coil embolization patients). Two patients developed large-area cerebral infarction after the procedure, and two patients had different degrees of neurological impairment after the procedure. The 1-year survival rate was 91.7% (33/36). Conclusion: Ruptured internal carotid artery pseudoaneurysm hemorrhage after radiotherapy is rare but life-threatening. Endovascular treatment with coil occlusion or stenting reconstruction of the internal carotid artery provides immediate hemostasis and elimination of the pseudoaneurysm with a low rate of recurrence, which may be effective in reducing patient mortality.
