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

This detailed case report presents and discusses the endovascular treatment of a large proximal basilar artery fenestrated aneurysm (PBAFA). Aneurysms occur rarely at the vertebrobasilar junction, with a moderate proportion of cases presenting fenestrations. Considering the high risk associated with posterior circulation aneurysms, including estimated rupture risk, periprocedural complications, or treatment difficulties in surgical procedures, endovascular treatment options are becoming increasingly favored, particularly considering the advancements in stent and flow diverter techniques. Our report focuses on a case of a 58-year-old male with a large unruptured PBAFA, treated using overlapping stent with coil embolization (OSCE) and triple catheter technique. This method was selected considering the size of the aneurysm, its complex vascular structure, and the risk of recurrence and complications. Our findings emphasize that a comprehensive understanding of vascular anatomy, hemodynamics, and the characteristics of endovascular treatment devices is essential for the treatment success. In addition, they demonstrate that the OSCE using low-profile visible intraluminal support devices combined with the triple catheter technique are an effective treatment option for large PBAFAs.
