Statin versus no statin after treatment with pipeline embolization device for intracranial aneurysms: a meta-analysis.
Synthesis in Arquivos de neuro-psiquiatria, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Some studies demonstrated the role of statin therapy in improving outcomes after coil embolization or surgical clipping of cerebral aneurysm. However, the benefit of statins after pipeline embolization device (PED) for intracranial aneurysms is not well established.To evaluate the effects of statins on hemorrhagic and ischemic complications as well as on complete occlusion of aneurysm in the treatment with PED.We searched the PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases for articles published from their inception to November 2024. Data were collected from observational studies comparing statin to no statin therapy following pipeline embolization.Four studies were included, comprising 2,822 patients and 3,063 aneurysms, 127 of which were ruptured and 4 of which received adjunctive coil embolization. Total hemorrhagic complication was reduced in the statin group (risk ratio [RR] = 0.50; 95%CI: 0.29-0.85;
