Contrast-induced encephalopathy after coil embolization for a ruptured anterior communicating artery aneurysm with perfusion from bilaterally developed A1 segments.
Article in Surgical neurology international, 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
Background: We report a case of contrast-induced encephalopathy (CIE) following coil embolization of a ruptured anterior communicating artery (AComA) aneurysm with bilateral A1 segment development. The aneurysm was visualized by forcefully injecting contrast medium from a distal access catheter (DAC) positioned distally in the internal carotid artery (ICA). Case Description: A 50-year-old female was diagnosed with subarachnoid hemorrhage. Computed tomography (CT) angiography revealed an AComA aneurysm with perfusion from well-developed bilateral A1 segments. Emergency coil embolization was performed. Clear visualization of the aneurysm from the right side required advancing the DAC to the C2 segment of the right ICA and forcefully injecting the contrast medium. Postoperatively, CT revealed extensive contrast leakage predominantly in the right cerebral hemisphere. The patient subsequently developed left-sided incomplete hemiparesis and left hemispatial neglect, leading to a diagnosis of CIE. The symptoms improved early with fluid replacement and antiepileptic drug administration. Conclusion: Forced injection of contrast medium from a DAC positioned distally in the ICA to visualize an aneurysm may have contributed to the onset of CIE. Alternative imaging approaches, such as ipsilateral angiography with contralateral blood flow suppression or contralateral angiography, may enhance aneurysm visualization while reducing the risk of CIE.
