Endovascular recanalization for symptomatic subacute and chronic intracranial large artery occlusion of the anterior circulation: initial experience and technical considerations.

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
purposeThis study aimed to report the clinical findings and initial clinical experience of endovascular recanalization for symptomatic subacute/chronic intracranial large artery occlusion (ILAO) of the anterior circulation.
methodsFrom October 2015 to December 2017, 13 patients with symptomatic subacute/chronic ILAO of the anterior circulation were enrolled in this study and underwent endovascular recanalization. We collected the initial procedural results, including the rate of successful recanalization and periprocedural complications, and data pertaining to angiographic and clinical follow-up.
resultsRecanalization was successful in 11 of 13 patients (84.6%). Intraoperative complications occurred in four cases, including symptomatic distal embolism in three cases; one of which was simultaneously complicated with artery dissection. Intracerebral hemorrhage occurred in one case. Eleven patients underwent angiographic follow-up, and 12 patients underwent clinical follow-up. The results of the angiography follow-up (mean 6 ± 3.29 months) showed that in-stent restenosis occurred in one of the 11 successfully recanalized patients. However, the artery was occluded again in the patient who achieved thrombolysis in cerebral infarction (TICI) grade of 2a after treatment. Clinical follow-up (mean 5.8 ± 2.25 months) showed no recurrence of transient ischemic attack (TIA) or stroke in ten successfully recanalized cases. However, the patient who developed in-stent stenosis suffered TIA.
conclusionsEndovascular recanalization for symptomatic subacute/chronic ILAO of anterior circulation is feasible, relatively safe, and efficacious in highly selected cases, improving patients' symptoms in the short-term. However, further larger scale pilot studies are needed to determine the efficacy and long-term outcome associated with this treatment.
