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 stenosis is the cause of 10 % of strokes. Besides medicinal treatment, intracranial bypass surgery, percutaneous transluminal angioplasty and stenting are available treatment approaches. According to the 2005 published WASID trial antiplatelets should be preferred to oral anticoagulation in secondary preventive therapy of ischemic stroke; however patients with high grade intracranial stenosis still have a poor prognosis. Intracranial bypass surgery, which was taken into account as a treatment option even in 1985, showed a generally worse outcome in relation to medicinal therapy. Intracranial angioplasty and stenting, representing improvements in endovascular treatment, were proven to be effective and feasible treatment approaches for patients with symptomatic high grade intracranial stenosis. Within the scope of the SAMMPRIS trial published in 2011, which propagated an advantage of aggressive medicinal treatment versus endovascular therapy, a retrospective study was performed at the department of neuroradiology of the Homburg University of Saarland.
