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

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the potential efficacy of 3-dimensional time-of-flight magnetic resonance angiography (TOF-MRA) to validate a canine ischemic stroke model. Ischemic stroke was induced through permanent middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) in 5 healthy Beagle dogs. T2-turbo spin echo images and TOF-MRA were obtained with a 1.5-T magnetic resonance system before and 3 and 10 d after MCAO. In 3 dogs, angiograms of the brain obtained at 3 d after MCAO showed complete occlusion of the MCA; in addition, T2 hyperintensities were present unilaterally in the striatocapsular and cerebral cortex lesions. Partial occlusion of the proximal part of the MCA was identified in the 2 remaining dogs, with T2 hyperintensities present only in the striatocapsular lesions. The occluded sites were confirmed at necropsy. The results of this study demonstrate the potential of TOF-MRA to provide a detailed description of intracranial arteries and aid in the evaluation of flow impairment in a canine MCAO model.
