Lipid-Rich Necrotic Core of Basilar Artery Atherosclerotic Plaque: Contrast-Enhanced Black Blood Imaging on Vessel Wall Imaging.

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
purposeWe wished to evaluate the lipid-rich necrotic core (LRNC) using contrast-enhanced T1-weighted (CE-T1W) black-blood (BB) imaging for vessel walls.
methodsNinety-five patients with basilar artery (BA) stenosis who underwent magnetic resonance angiography between January 2016 and August 2018 were enrolled into this present study. CE-T1W BB imaging was considered as a reference method for identifying an LRNC.
resultsTen (10.5%) patients were identified as having an LRNC on CE-T1W BB imaging. Of these patients, 9 had acute symptoms. The extent of stenosis in patients with an LRNC on CE-T1W BB imaging was significantly greater than that of patients without an LRNC (
conclusionsIdentification of an LRNC on CE-T1W BB imaging was associated with high-grade stenosis and massive plaque burden from BA atherosclerosis.
