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

Cerebral aneurysms (CAs) affect 3 to 5% of the general population, with saccular aneurysms being the most common type. Despite advances in treatment, patient understanding of CAs and associated procedures remains limited, impacting informed consent and treatment outcomes.This pilot study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of mixed reality (MR) technology in enhancing patient education and understanding of cerebral angiograms and aneurysm treatment, thereby improving the patient-surgeon communication process.A nonrandomized single-center prospective study was conducted with 16 patients diagnosed with intracranial aneurysms. Participants used a Microsoft HoloLens to view an interactive 3D presentation about cerebral angiograms and aneurysm treatments. Pre- and post-intervention surveys assessed their knowledge and anxiety levels using a 5-point Likert scale. The Wilcoxon's signed-rank test was used for statistical analysis.Post-intervention, the total survey scores improved significantly (average increase of 6.7 points,
