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

Patient-specific vascular models enhance preoperative planning in interventional radiology, particularly in complex and anatomically challenging cases. This report presents two cases of complex aneurysm coil embolization in which three-dimensional, printed, patient-specific vascular hollow models were key to selecting optimal catheters, leading to successful interventions. Preoperative simulations with these models facilitated preselection of the optimal catheter, minimizing the need for intraoperative catheter exchange and reducing the time required for catheter engagement and placement. This approach improves procedural efficiency and outcomes by ensuring a smoother workflow.
