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 The optimal management of a small intracranial aneurysm (sIA) remains a challenge due to the lack of a size-specific risk predictive model for aneurysm rupture. We aimed to develop and validate a nomogram-based risk predictive model for sIA. Methods A total of 382 patients harboring 215 ruptured and 167 unruptured small intracranial aneurysms (uSIAs) (≤ 7 mm) were recruited and divided into training and validation cohorts. Risk factors for the construction of a nomogram were selected from clinical and aneurysmal features by least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) and multivariate logistic regression. The nomogram for risk of rupture was evaluated in both the training and validation cohorts for discrimination, calibration, and clinical usefulness. Results Hyperlipidemia (odds ratio (OR)=2.74, 95% confidence interval (CI)=1.322~5.956, P=0.008), the presence of a daughter dome (OR=3.068, 95%CI=1.311~7.598, P=0.012), larger size-to-neck ratio (SN) (OR=1.807, 95%CI=1.131~3.063, P=0.021) and size ratio (SR) (OR=2.221, 95%CI=1.262~4.025, P=0.007) were selected as independent risk factors for sIA rupture and used for construction of nomogram. Internal validation by bootstrap sampling showed the Concordance index (C index) of 0.756 for the nomogram. The calibration by the Hosmer-Lemeshow test showed a P value of 0.847, indicating the model was well-fitted. Additionally, decision curve analysis (DCA) demonstrated that the predictive model has good clinical usefulness, providing net benefits across a range of threshold probabilities, thus supporting its application in clinical decision-making. Conclusion The risk prediction model can reliably predict the risk of sIA rupture, which may provide an important reference for optimizing the therapeutic strategy.
