[Thrombolysis for ischemic stroke: an update].
Review in Der Nervenarzt, 2007. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Even 10 years after the approval of thrombolysis this life-saving and disability reducing therapy is still underused. Important reasons for that are very strict inclusion criteria such as the early and narrow time-window, fear of bleeding complications and doubts regarding the effectiveness. An intensive and constant effort is required to educate the public that stroke is a treatable emergency. In addition to the medical reasons, economic considerations in a context of decreasing resources emphasize the importance of effective stroke treatment. The results of numerous recent studies such as the European register SITS-MOST help to strengthen the confidence in thrombolysis. In addition the development and advancement of new imaging tools such as multiparametric MRI and advanced CT-techniques will improve patient selection and may enable us to extend the time-window for treatment. Intraarterial thrombolysis, "bridging" methods and new devices for intravascular intervention are the subjects of intensive ongoing research. Even though no randomized trials are available intraarterial thrombolysis is the treatment of choice for acute basilar occlusion, but if this intervention is not available an intravenous approach may be an equal alternative.
