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

To present results of complex intracranial aneurysms (CIAs) underwent extracranial-intracranial (EC-IC) bypass with one-stage and two-stage aneurysm trapping in anterior circulation and share our experience. The author retrospectively reviewed 53 patients with CIAs underwent EC-IC bypass with different therapies of aneurysm trapping from Jan. 2018 to Dec 2020. Ballon occlusion testing (BOT) was performed to assess collateral circulation. In general, CIAs was operated by one-stage trapping, which was characterized by simultaneous implementation of aneurysm trapping and EC-IC bypass. However, CIAs failing to BOT or harboring important perforators was performed by two-stage trapping, which involved subsequent delay in performing aneurysm trapping based on CIAs change after EC-IC bypass. Clinical variables, postoperative complications, and follow-up outcomes were presented. Of the 53 patients, 28 patients completed the one-stage aneurysm trapping, and 25 patients completed two-stage aneurysm trapping. There was significant difference in patients experiencing new cerebral infarction between patients with one-stage and two-stage aneurysm trapping (21.4% vs. 4.0%, P = 0.049). When discharged, there was significant difference in CIAs disappeared between patients with one-stage and two-stage aneurysm trapping (100.0% vs. 24.0%, P < 0.001). CIAs without one-stage aneurysm trapping achieved complex aneurysm changes after revascularization, including aneurysm disappeared, unchanged, and enlarged in 6 cases, 9 cases, and 10 cases. Out of 18 CIAs demanding two-staged aneurysm trapping, aneurysm disappeared in 17 cases and got smaller in 1 case. At the final follow-up with average of 58 months, there was no significant difference in aneurysm change between patients with one-stage and two-stage aneurysm trapping (P = 0.312). No new ischemic and hemorrhagic events developed. EC-IC bypass with one-stage aneurysm trapping was an effective option for CIAs although with high risk of operation-related infarction. EC-IC bypass with two-stage aneurysm trapping was an alternative treatment for selected CIAs.
