Intracranial Rescue Stent Angioplasty After Stent-Retriever Thrombectomy : Multicenter Experience.
Article in Clinical neuroradiology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 papers.
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
purposeStent-retriever thrombectomy (SRT) for acute intracranial large artery occlusion (LAO) may not result in permanent recanalization in rare cases, e.g. due to an underlying stenosis or dissection. In this specific patient group, rescue stent angioplasty (RSA) may be the only treatment option to achieve permanent vessel patency and potentially a good clinical outcome. To date, the experience with RSA is limited.
methodsIn this retrospective analysis, interventional and clinical data of patients with acute intracranial LAO of the anterior and posterior circulation who underwent RSA after SRT due to an underlying lesion between 2012-2017 in four neurovascular centers were studied.
resultsIn this study 34 patients (mean age 67 years) were included whereby 18 patients had anterior circulation LAO and 16 patients posterior circulation LAO. The SRT maneuver count ranged between 1 and 15 (median 2). Indications for RSA were an immediate re-occlusion in 25 (74%), and a persistent high-grade stenosis in 9 patients (26%). The RSA was technically feasible in 33 patients (97%). A mTICI 2b/3 result was obtained in 26 patients (76%). Median onset-to-recanalization time was 248 min (range 80-650 min). After 3 months 10/34 patients (29%) had a good clinical outcome (modified Rankin Scale, mRS 0-2). In detail, 4/18 patients (22%) with anterior circulation LAO and 6/16 patients (38%) with posterior circulation LAO were functionally independent.
conclusionThe use of RSA can be considered for acute intracranial LAO in cases with immediate re-occlusion or high-grade stenosis after SRT alone.
