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

backgroundInflammation is a critical driver of intracranial aneurysm (IA) instability. The systemic immune-inflammation index (SII), a novel composite inflammatory biomarker, may reflect the local mural changes observed on vessel wall imaging (VWI). PURPOSE/HYPOTHESIS: To investigate the association between the SII and aneurysmal wall enhancement (AWE) on high-resolution vessel wall imaging (HRVWI), and to evaluate SII as a potential biomarker for aneurysm instability. STUDY TYPE: Prospective cross-sectional study. POPULATION: Four hundred and eighteen intracranial aneurysms in 311 patients (65.3% female, median age 58.0 years) underwent HRVWI. A sub-cohort of 67 patients with 84 aneurysms was included for longitudinal analysis of aneurysm growth (median follow-up 7.0 months). FIELD STRENGTH/SEQUENCE: Field strength/sequence: A 3.0T MR scanner; 3D time-of-flight magnetic resonance angiography (TOF-MRA); 3D black-blood T1-weighted volumetric turbo spin echo acquisition (T1-VISTA); and post-contrast vessel wall imaging using a 3D fast field echo sequence. ASSESSMENT: AWE defined as aneurysm-to-pituitary stalk contrast ratio (CR STATISTICAL TESTS: Multivariable logistic regression and propensity score matching evaluated the association between SII and AWE. Longitudinal analysis was performed using Firth's logistic regression. Subgroup analyses were stratified by clinical and aneurysmal characteristics. p < 0.05 was considered significant.

resultsAWE was present in 142/418 (34.0%) aneurysms. In multivariable analysis, elevated SII was independently associated with AWE (odds ratio [OR] = 1.93). This association remained significant after PSM (median SII: 0.60 in AWE group vs. 0.42 in non-AWE group). SII was also independently associated with aneurysm growth in the longitudinal sub-cohort (OR = 20.519). Subgroup analysis showed a significant interaction with aneurysm location, with the strongest association in the internal carotid artery (OR = 3.55; 95% CI: 1.63-7.71). DATA

conclusionElevated SII is independently associated with the presence of AWE and aneurysm growth. EVIDENCE LEVEL: 3. TECHNICAL EFFICACY: Stage 2.
