Predictive value of the THRIVE score for outcome in patients with acute basilar artery occlusion treated with thrombectomy.
Article in Brain and behavior, 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
background and purposeA higher Totaled Health Risks in Vascular Events (THRIVE) score has been shown to predict poor functional outcome in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) and anterior circulation large vessel occlusions undergoing thrombectomy treatment. We attempted to evaluate the value of the THRIVE score in predicting the outcome of thrombectomy treatment in AIS patients with basilar artery occlusion (BAO).
methodsA total of 68 AIS patients with BAO who underwent thrombectomy treatment from May 2014 to August 2018 were included in the present study. Multivariable logistic regression was performed to determine the predictive value of the THRIVE score for poor functional outcome (defined as modified Rankin Scale score ≥ 3), all-cause mortality, and hemorrhage transformation (HT) at 3 months.
resultsA total of 42 (61.8%) participants experienced poor functional outcomes, 25 (36.8%) patients died from all causes, and 21 (30.9%) patients had HT during the 3-month follow-up. Multivariable logistic regression showed that a higher THRIVE score was significantly associated with poor functional outcome (odds ratio [OR] 5.86, 95% confidence interval [CI], 2.28-14.91, p < .001) as well as all-cause mortality (OR 2.40, 95% CI, 1.32-4.34, p = .004) but not HT (p = .607). The C-statistic of the THRIVE score was significantly larger than that of the NIHSS score for predicting poor functional outcome (AUC = 0.913; cutoff > 5; sensitivity, 88.5%; specificity, 83.3%, p = .007) and all-cause mortality (AUC = 0.768; cutoff > 5; sensitivity, 92.0%; specificity, 65.1%, p = .018).
conclusionsA high THRIVE score was independently associated with an increased risk of poor functional outcome and all-cause mortality in AIS patients with BAO who underwent thrombectomy treatment. Moreover, the THRIVE score appeared to be a better predictor of clinical outcome than the NIHSS score.
