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
Objective: The Woven EndoBridge (WEB; MicroVention TERUMO, Tustin, CA, USA) is an intrasaccular flow disruptor developed for the treatment of wide-neck bifurcation aneurysms (WNBA). While its safety and satisfactory mid- to long-term treatment outcomes have been documented, there have also been reports of complications such as WEB protrusion and migration. We encountered 3 cases in which the WEB protruded or migrated to the parent vessel after deployment, necessitating retrieval. In this report, we address the technical tips for retrieval techniques and factors associated with these complications, including a literature review. Case Presentation: Of the 120 cases of our experience with WEB treatment for cerebral aneurysms for the period since January 2021, 3 required WEB retrievals. In 2 cases, significant WEB migration toward the parent vessel occurred while maneuvering the delivery microcatheter because of sticky detachment. In the remaining case, after detachment of the WEB, tilting occurred, leading to a strong protrusion into one of the branches, which prevented guiding the microcatheter for bailout stenting. In all cases, the proximal marker of the WEB was captured using an Amplatz Goose Neck Microsnare (Medtronic, Minneapolis, MN, USA) pulled back into the VIA catheter (the delivery catheter for the WEB; MicroVention TERUMO), and further into an intermediate catheter positioned as close to the aneurysm as possible, enabling uneventful retrieval. Conclusion: None of the cases damaged the aneurysm or proximal parent vessel wall, and additional aneurysm occlusion treatment was performed. However, WEB protrusions and migration are rare. When retrieval is required, it is crucial to act swiftly owing to the risk of distal thrombosis from the lumen inside of the WEB. Therefore, recognizing Goose Neck Microsnare as a retrieval technique is valuable.
