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: There are only a few reports about flow diverter (FD) placement for large thrombosed aneurysms of the middle cerebral artery (MCA). We present a case of FD placement for a recurrent large thrombosed aneurysm of MCA at our hospital. Case Presentation: A 72-year-old man with transient visual field disturbance underwent craniotomy for a large aneurysm in the left MCA; dome clipping was performed because of severe arteriosclerosis. Over several years, the residual aneurysm gradually increased in size, and despite antiplatelet therapy, the patient experienced repeated cerebral infarctions due to intra-aneurysmal thrombosis. A closer examination revealed that the M2 superior trunk was occluded. Thus, we performed FD placement, without further complications. After 6 months, the aneurysm was confirmed to be occluded with an O'Kelly-Marotta grading scale (OKM grade) of D. There was no enlargement of the thrombus inside the aneurysm, and the patient is currently under follow-up observation. Conclusion: FD placement may be an option for large thrombosed aneurysms of MCA that are difficult to treat with conventional methods.
