Clinical Characteristics and Outcome of Patients With Intraoperative Aneurysm Rupture: A Retrospective Cohort Study From Nepal.
Article in Neurosurgery practice, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
BACKGROUND AND
objectivesIntraoperative aneurysm rupture (IAR) is a significant complication during microsurgical clipping of cerebral aneurysms. The timing of rupture during surgery, morphology of the aneurysm, and strategies to mitigate risk are the key factors that influence the outcome.
methodsConsecutive patients with the diagnosis of ruptured cerebral aneurysms were retrospectively reviewed at a single University Hospital in Kathmandu, Nepal. Variables analyzed included age, sex, presenting symptoms, Hunt and Hess grades, the location of aneurysms, the timing of surgery, and intraoperative rupture status. Outcomes were assessed at 6 months after surgery.
resultsA total of 199 patients with 231 ruptured cerebral aneurysms from July 2014 to December 2022 were reviewed. Surgery was performed within 3 days in 60 (30.1%) patients. Twenty aneurysms ruptured intraoperatively in 20 patients (10% per patient and 8.6% per aneurysm). Patients with IAR were significantly younger (mean age 52 years) than those without IAR (mean age 58 years) (
conclusionThe demographic and clinical characteristics and rates of IAR in our patient population are similar to those in the contemporary literature. In patients with IAR, the outcome is not worse than those without IAR.
