Longitudinal assessment of cerebral blood flow changes following carotid artery stenting and endarterectomy.
Article in La Radiologia medica, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
backgroundCarotid artery stenting (CAS) and endarterectomy (CEA) are major treatment strategies for patients with internal carotid artery (ICA) stenosis; however, the dynamic cerebral blood flow (CBF) changes after CAS and CEA remain unclear. PURPOSE: This study aimed to monitor consecutive CBF changes at 24-h intervals in patients who underwent CAS and CEA to explore the potential pattern of CBF alternation and compare the effect on CBF changes of different surgical methods.
methodsThirty-two patients (28 males and 4 females; age = 63.0 ± 7.3 years) with 70-99% ipsilateral stenosis in the ICA were enrolled, of which 19 underwent CAS and 13 underwent CEA by prospective cross-sectional study. Routine head MRI and three-dimensional pseudo-continuous arterial spin labeling were performed using a 3.0-T system within 7 days prior to operations, and at 4 consecutive time-points (24, 48, 72, and 96 h) after operations. Comparisons within groups were made using paired t test, and comparisons between groups were made using independent-sample t test.
resultsThe CBF values markedly increased at 24 h after CAS and CEA (P < 0.05) compared with baseline. Most patients showed peak CBF values on the ipsilateral side at 72 h (13/19, 68%) after CAS and at 48 h (10/13, 77%) after CEA, which then declined. The CBF values for the ipsilateral ICA territory of CEA group were higher than those of CAS group at 24, 48, 72, and 96 h (P < 0.05).
conclusionsThe pattern of dynamic CBF changes is different after CAS and CEA, which may be helpful for the improvement of the patient's postoperative management.
