Risk factors and the role of intraoperative hypotension in cerebral infarction after microsurgical clipping of intracranial aneurysms: a retrospective case-control study.
Article in Neurosurgical review, 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
Blood pressure control during microsurgical clipping of intracranial aneurysms is challenging, as high blood pressure increases the risk of rupture, while hypotension may impair cerebral perfusion. The impact of intraoperative hypotension on postoperative cerebral infarction remains unclear. This study aims to identify independent risk factors and quantify the association between intraoperative hypotension and postoperative cerebral infarction. We conducted a retrospective case-control study of patients undergoing intracranial aneurysm clipping. The primary outcome was postoperative cerebral infarction, identified using routine computed tomography scans. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to determine independent risk factors and assess the relationship between intraoperative hypotension parameters and postoperative cerebral infarction. Restricted cubic spline (RCS) models were used to quantify the relationship between intraoperative blood pressure and postoperative cerebral infarction. Among 689 patients, 83 (12.05%) experienced postoperative cerebral infarction. Multivariate regression analysis identified aneurysm size (odds ratio [OR] = 2.353, 95%CI: 1.327-4.173, P = 0.003), duration of intraoperative hypotension (OR = 1.021, 95%CI: 1.001-1.042, P = 0.045), and maximum diastolic blood pressure (OR = 0.717, 95%CI: 0.525-0.981, P = 0.038) as significant risk factors for postoperative cerebral infarction. RCS plots demonstrated an increased risk of postoperative cerebral infarction with prolonged hypotension durations and greater cumulative exposure to hypotension. The high incidence of cerebral infarction following intracranial aneurysm clipping underscores the need for careful perioperative management. Aneurysm size and intraoperative hypotension burden are independent risk factors for cerebral infarction. Strategies to minimize intraoperative hypotension during microsurgical clipping may help reduce postoperative infarction rates and improve patient outcomes. Clinical trial number: Not applicable.
