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

Anterior communicating artery aneurysms rarely cause compressive optic neuropathy, and most reports describe surgical clipping or endovascular coiling. Evidence is lacking on the role of intrasaccular flow disruptors, such as the Woven EndoBridge device, in this setting. We present a 72-year-old woman with an unruptured anterior communicating artery aneurysm compressing the right optic nerve and producing an inferior visual field defect. The aneurysm was treated with Woven EndoBridge embolization, positioned to minimize mass effect. The patient's vision improved within 1 month, and follow-up angiography confirmed complete occlusion. By demonstrating safe aneurysm occlusion and visual improvement with Woven EndoBridge deployment, our report offers a novel endovascular option where the optimal approach remains uncertain.
