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

background and purposeThere are differing results in recent literature concerning aneurysmal wall enhancement (AWE) after endovascular treatment (ET) of intracranial aneurysms (IAs). The aim of this retrospective study is to investigate if the presence of AWE of unruptured treated IAs via stent-assisted coiling (SAC) is associated with higher reperfusion rates. MATERIALS AND

methodsThe clinical courses of 58 patients with IAs after ET via SAC were examined over the timespan of up to 5 years, assessing for AWE in T1 SPACE FS and T1 SE FS blood suppression sequences after contrast administration, events of reperfusion and need for retreatment.

results58 patients were included (23 with AWE, 35 without). 18 of 23 patients (78.3%) with AWE showed reperfusion after treatment, compared to 15 of 35 patients (42.9%) without AWE. Reperfusion rates were significantly higher in patients with AWE, compared to those without AWE (p = 0.0139) also after propensity score matching (p = 0.0456).

conclusionsIn patients with unruptured IAs treated exclusively with SAC, AWE on follow-up MRI was significantly associated with higher reperfusion rates. AWE may serve as an early imaging biomarker of post-treatment instability.
