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

Intracranial aneurysms (IAs) are a major cause of spontaneous subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) and are associated with high morbidity and mortality. Current IA rodent models often exhibit low rupture rates and limited imaging capabilities, restricting their translational utility. This study introduces a modified elastase-based rat model that incorporates angiographic imaging to overcome these challenges. IAs were induced in 7-week-old female Sprague-Dawley rats using a combination of surgical and pharmacological interventions, including carotid artery and renal artery ligation, bilateral ovariectomy, high-salt diet, and two elastase injections into the basal cistern. Digital subtraction angiography (DSA) was employed to assess aneurysm formation and rupture rate. Histological and immunohistochemical analyses were conducted to characterize aneurysm morphology and the inflammatory response. The modified model achieved a high rate of IA formation (85%) and rupture (60%) within 28 days. DSA enabled visualization of vessel tortuosity and flow dynamics, features relevant to human IA development, which often occurs in areas subjected to hemodynamic stress, and the tortuosity of intracranial vessels affects their rupture
