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

Background Acute ischemic stroke due to basilar artery occlusion (BAO) is associated with a dismal prognosis and, even though endovascular treatment (EVT) contributed to an improvement in clinical outcomes, patient selection is difficult and frequently results in futile recanalization. We investigated the prognostic value of baseline ADC quantification in patients with BAO undergoing EVT. Methods We retrospectively evaluated MRI at admission in 11 patients with BAO undergoing EVT. Ischemic lesions were defined on baseline DWI and minimum ADC (minADC), ADC ratio and total area were quantified. Final infarction area was determined on follow-up T2WI/CT. We assessed the correlation between imaging parameters, recanalization grade and clinical scores (NIHSS at admission, NIHSS and mRS at discharge and mRS at three months) using Spearman rank correlation coefficient and correcting for multiple comparisons with the false discovery rate (FDR). Results Lower values of minADC at admission MRI are strongly correlated with higher scores in NIHSS (r
