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 importanceMarfan syndrome's association with intracranial aneurysms, though controversial, poses unique challenges for surgical intervention because of the inherent vascular fragility. Open surgical approaches carry considerable risk. Endovascular flow diversion with the Pipeline embolization device (PED) offers a less invasive alternative, and adjunctive coiling can decrease occlusion time for complex aneurysms. We report the first combined use of PED and coiling to treat a Marfan-associated intracranial aneurysm, detailing our operative approach and reviewing the literature. CLINICAL PRESENTATION: A 53-year-old patient with a pathological

conclusionThis is the first case of combined PED and coiling for an intracranial aneurysm in Marfan syndrome. This dual approach may offer safer and more effective treatment than traditional methods. In addition, the formation of de novo aneurysms underscores the importance of long-term angiographic follow-up in patients with
