Efficacy and safety of an early Solitaire stent retrieval technique for acute ischemic stroke.
Article in Japanese journal of radiology, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 1 paper.
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
purposeThe aim of this study was to retrospectively evaluate the efficacy and safety of early pull-back of a Solitaire stent as a thrombectomy device in patients with acute ischemic stroke.
methodsThe study group comprised 23 consecutive cases presenting with acute ischemic stroke who were treated with intra-arterial therapy using the Solitaire device as a first-line endovascular procedure. The stent was deployed to cover the thrombus and then left in place for 1-2 min. Immediate angiographic results are presented. Neurologic status was assessed according to the NIH Stroke Scale score (NIHSS) and the modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score.
resultsSuccessful recanalization (TICI grade ≥ 2b) was achieved in 21 of the 23 (91.3 %) treated vessels, and 6 of the patients showed immediate flow restoration after the deployment of the first stent. The mean number of passes for maximal recanalization was 1.96. There were no symptomatic procedure-related complications. Of the cases, 34.8 % improved by >10 points on the NIHSS at discharge; 30.4 % of cases revealed good functional outcome (mRS score 0-2) at 90 days.
conclusionsThe early retrieval technique with the Solitaire stent appears to be a safe and effective method in patients with acute ischemic stroke.
