Safety and efficacy of flow diverter stents in the treatment of bifurcation cerebral aneurysms: single-center experience
Article in Diagnostic and interventional radiology (Ankara, Turkey), 2025. 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
purposeThe use of flow diverter (FD) stents is continually expanding. Aneurysms on arterial bifurcation typically have an undesirable anatomical form, are frequently wide-necked, and include one or more side-branch arteries. In recent years, the off-label use of flow diversion in treating intracranial aneurysms beyond the internal carotid artery has become increasingly popular. This study reports our center's initial experience treating bifurcation aneurysms with FD devices, documenting occlusion outcomes using the O'Kelly-Marotta and modified Cekirge-Saatci scales, as well as the safety of FD usage in bifurcation locations.
methodsThis retrospective, single-center study analyzed a prospectively maintained database of patients with cerebral aneurysms treated endovascularly. The study identified bifurcation aneurysms that were treated between January 2019 and May 2022 by placing an FD device covering the neck of the aneurysm.
resultsOur short series suggests that flow diversion is a viable therapeutic option for bifurcation aneurysms with favorable angiographic outcomes.
conclusionIn highly selective cases, flow diversion may be considered for treating bifurcation aneurysms in patients who will undergo follow-up examinations in the future. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: Flow diversion has emerged as a valuable technique in the management of bifurcation aneurysms, offering the potential for satisfactory occlusion and long-term outcomes.
