A Case of Acute Isolated Posterior Cerebral Artery Occlusion Successfully Treated with Endovascular Clot Aspiration.
Article in NMC case report journal, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Posterior cerebral artery (PCA) strokes produce various symptoms. Therefore, the diagnosis is often delayed and patients arrive late for thrombolytic therapy. We report a case of acute isolated PCA occlusion that was successfully treated with endovascular clot aspiration. A 63-year-old man presented with right complete homonymous hemianopia. Diffusion-weighted image (DWI) showed a high-intensity area (HIA) in the occipital lobe, and magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) showed PCA occlusion. Emergency endovascular clot aspiration was performed immediately after the diagnosis. Blood flow in PCA completely recovered 210 min after symptom onset. DWI after surgery showed partial disappearance of HIA, and the patient recovered from the symptom of right complete homonymous hemianopia. Endovascular recanalization is useful for acute PCA occlusion. This is the first reported case of acute isolated PCA occlusion successfully treated with endovascular clot aspiration. Prompt reperfusion results in a good clinical course in patients with PCA stroke. In this case, endovascular clot aspiration resulted in prompt recanalization in a patient with acute isolated PCA occlusion.
