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

Angiographic balloon test occlusion (BTO) allows preoperative risk evaluation of patients undergoing permanent therapeutic occlusion of the internal carotid artery (ICA). The sensitivity of the BTO can be increased using different complementary techniques. Transcranial Doppler (TCD) stands out as a non-invasive, bedside method providing real-time monitoring of cerebral haemodynamics, therefore accurately identifying patients at risk of stroke. A case of a 30-year-old woman with a giant intracavernous aneurysm of the left ICA presenting with subacute left VI nerve palsy is described. A pre-operative TCD- and EEG-monitored BTO of the left ICA was performed. The 16.7% drop found in the middle cerebral artery's peak systolic velocity (PSVMCA) predicts clinical and haemodynamic tolerance to the permanent loss of that vessel. This case illustrates the potential of TCD monitoring during temporary BTO of the ICA. It highlights its ability to provide a complete preclinical evaluation of collateralization and autoregulatory adaptation to unilateral ICA occlusion. TCD may also decrease the time of occlusion required for the BTO.
