Surgery for Superior Cerebellar Artery Aneurysm.
Article in The Malaysian journal of medical sciences : MJMS, 2025. 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
Background: Superior Cerebellar Artery (SCA) aneurysms account for about 1% to 3% of all intracranial aneurysms. SCA has an interesting anatomy, with multiple options of surgical approaches. Methods: From January 2022 to May 2023, a total of 167 aneurysm cases were treated at our centre. Only two patients were confirmed to have SCA aneurysm from cerebral angiography. Demographic study, clinical characteristics, radiological data, treatment plan and outcome were analysed. Results: The total number of vascular cases at our centre from January 2022 to May 2023 is 241. There were 167 cases of aneurysm (69.3%), where 115 patients (68.9%) went for surgery, and 52 (31.1%) opted for endovascular intervention. The distribution of aneurysms by location are ACA 7.2%, ACOM 24.6%, MCA 8.9%, PCOM 18.6%, ICA 21.6%, SCA 1.2%, PCA 1.8%, PICA 8.4%, vertebral artery 2.4%, and basilar artery 5.3%. Complex aneurysms made up 58.7% of all cases and were treated with endovascular procedures more often than simple aneurysms (36.7% vs. 23.2%, Conclusion: SCA aneurysms are rare and present significant surgical challenges due to their complex anatomy. Choosing the right surgical approach depends on the aneurysm's location along the SCA segments. With proper technique and surgical experience, microsurgical treatment can offer favourable outcomes for patients.
