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

objectivePhenox flow diverters (p64 and its smaller vessel variant p48) represent an established treatment option for intracranial aneurysms. This study evaluates the safety and efficacy of the new generation of these devices with an additional antithrombotic surface coating (HPC).

methodsConsecutive patients treated between 2020 and 2023 at three institutions were retrospectively reviewed for aneurysm characteristics, procedural details, complications, and angiographic outcomes.

resultsSixty-one patients (mean age 56 years) were treated for 61 aneurysms. The mean aneurysm size was 8.3 ± 4.9 mm, 12 (19.7%) were ruptured, 16 (26.2%) were recurrent after previous treatment, 10 (16.4%) were located in the posterior circulation, and 7 (11.5%) had nonsaccular morphology. All procedures were technically successful, with a single device sufficient in 60/61 (98%) cases. Delivery problems included device twisting in one case and incomplete proximal opening in another. Additional angioplasty was performed in 3/61 (4.9%) procedures and additional coiling in 4 (6.6%). There were 3 (4.9%) major events (1 thromboembolic ischemic stroke, 1 fatal intracranial hemorrhage, and 1 delayed aneurysm rupture) and 6 (9.8%) minor strokes. Follow up at a mean of 6 months showed complete occlusion in 33/42 (79%) aneurysms, neck remnants in 5 (12%), and aneurysm remnants in 4 (10%).

conclusionsThe results demonstrate comparable acceptable complication rates and angiographic results of the Phenox HPC, which are similar to other flow diverters. Long-term and comparative studies are needed to evaluate the full potential of these devices.
