Initial experience with a self-expanding retrievable stent for recanalization of large vessel occlusions in acute ischemic stroke.
Article in Neuroradiology, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 17 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
introductionQuicker recanalization results in better clinical outcomes in patients with acute ischemic strokes. We describe our experience with the use of a self-expanding, fully retrievable stent in acute intracranial occlusions.
methodsPatients who underwent intra-arterial procedures with a self-expanding, fully retrievable stent for acute ischemic strokes at our center in 2009 were included in this study. The primary outcome was recanalization [Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) grade 2/3] at end of procedure. Secondary endpoints were procedural interval times, incidence of vasospasm, rupture of vessels, device-related complications, groin complications, postprocedural intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) on noncontrast CT, and all-cause mortality.
resultsFourteen patients (mean age 62.1 years, range 34-81 years; six males) were included in the study. Sites of occlusion are as follows: M1 middle cerebral artery (MCA, n = 8), M2 MCA (n = 1), proximal basilar artery (n = 1), and distal basilar artery (n = 4). An additional device or technique was used in 9 of 14 patients prior to the use of the retrievable stent. Twelve out of 14 (85.7%) achieved TIMI 2-3 recanalization with 4 of 14 (28.6%) achieving TIMI 3. Eight of 14 (57.1%) patients had modified Rankin Scale (0-2) at 3 months or discharge. ICH on follow-up CT was noted in 28.6% (4 of 14) of patients. All-cause mortality was 2 of 14 (14.3%).
conclusionUse of a novel self-expanding, fully retrievable stent resulted in fast and very high recanalization rates in acute ischemic strokes with intravascular occlusions.
