Endovascular coil embolization for cerebral aneurysms in the elderly in an aging society.
Observational study in Science progress. 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
ObjectiveAn aging or aged society is and has been a reality in many developed countries. Additionally, the incidence of subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) in elderly patients has been estimated to be increasing. However, the outcomes of SAH treatment by clipping or coiling in elderly patients are poor. Therefore, preventative surgery for elderly patients with unruptured cerebral aneurysm is becoming increasingly important. The aim of this study was to analyze the safety and efficacy of endovascular coil embolization for elderly patients with cerebral aneurysm.MethodsA total of 252 patients (264 aneurysms) who underwent endovascular coil embolization for cerebral aneurysms between April 2012 and August 2018 at our institution were included. This study is retrospective observational study, and we retrospectively investigated treatment outcomes and perioperative complications in nonelderly patients and elderly patients with ruptured or unruptured cerebral aneurysms, who underwent endovascular coil embolization. We defined patients aged < 65 years as nonelderly and aged
