Neurothrombectomy in the treatment of acute ischaemic stroke.
Review in Nature reviews. Neurology, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Major ischaemic stroke is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in industrialized countries. For patients with acute stroke, fast and effective vessel recanalization is important for successful treatment. Neurothrombectomy--that is, angiographically performed mechanical thrombus removal from intracranial arteries--results in higher recanalization rates than with pharmaceutical thrombolysis alone, but the value of this treatment in terms of clinical outcome remains to be established. This article summarizes the history of intra-arterial stroke treatment, outlines the recent developments and the different techniques used, and discusses the results of current studies on neurothrombectomy. Owing to the high morphological and clinical variability of stroke, careful patient selection in future randomized controlled trials will be crucial for assessment of the true potential of neurothrombectomy.
