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

Endovascular treatment is one of the treatment options considered for acute stroke in many primary stroke centers. Outcome from such treatment can be very successful and gratifying if the intervention is timely and patient selection is appropriate. There are however certain pitfalls that need to be kept in mind which, if the interventionalist is not careful, can adversely affect the outcome. We describe such a case where the patient presented with acute stroke due to basilar artery thrombosis but also had an aneurysm in the affected vessel. We also make certain recommendations to reduce the chances of complications arising during treatment of patients with such a condition.
