The Year Embolectomy Won: a Review of Five Trials Assessing the Efficacy of Mechanical Intervention in Acute Stroke.
Review in Current cardiology reports, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. 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
Embolectomy with stentriever devices is the newest treatment for acute stroke. Since 1995, treatment of acute stroke has been limited to a 4.5-h window with the use of intravenous tissue plasminogen activator (tPA). Five articles have been published in 2015 with the results supporting the paired treatment of tPA and embolectomy. This has also expanded the treatment window to greater than 4.5 h and produced evidence which will guide selection of patients that will benefit most from this therapy. This article will compare and contrast this most recent evidence.
