Acute Ischemic Stroke in Late Pregnancy Treated with Intravenous Thrombolysis and Endovascular Therapy.
Article in Case reports in neurology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Pregnancy has usually been an exclusion criterion in clinical trials with thrombolysis and endovascular therapy in acute ischemic stroke. For that reason, these therapies are not recommended causing lack of evidence and vice versa. In this case report, we describe a pregnant woman in week 33 + 3 presenting with acute ischemic stroke, which was successfully treated with systemic thrombolysis and endovascular therapy, resulting in a good clinical outcome for both mother and child. The altered fibrinolytic system and the risk factors related to pregnancy constitute a challenge for clinicians when choosing the most suitable treatment modality for treating acute ischemic stroke in pregnancy. It is still uncertain whether thrombolysis in combination with endovascular therapy or endovascular therapy alone is the most appropriate treatment option. However, there is slowly growing evidence that thrombolysis and thrombectomy in pregnancy are feasible and safe with a good clinical outcome for both the mother and the child.
