Endovascular Treatment of Acute Ischemic Stroke Due to Intracranial Atherosclerotic Large Vessel Occlusion : A Systematic Review.
Synthesis in Clinical neuroradiology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 20 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
objectiveTo evaluate the efficacy and safety of endovascular treatment (ET) of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) caused by intracranial atherosclerotic large vessel occlusion (ICAS-LVO).
methodsA systemic review and meta-analysis were conducted on studies published between July 2005 and October 2018 on the outcomes of ET in patients with AIS due to ICAS-LVO. The outcomes of the ICAS-LVO and embolic LVO groups were also compared.
resultsA total of 17 studies including 1315 subjects with ICAS-LVO were included. In the single-arm meta-analysis, the pooled estimates of successful recanalization rate, favorable outcomes, symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage and mortality were 88% (95% CI (95% confidence interval), 84-92%), 52% (95% CI, 47-56%), 5% (95% CI, 3-7%) and 15% (95% CI, 12-19%) respectively. The preferred primary treatment was stent-retriever thrombectomy (84.1%) and the preferred rescue treatment was stent implantation with or without percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA, 32.7%). In the double-arm meta-analysis, the incidence of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage was lower in the ICAS-LVO compared to the embolic-LVO group (OR (odds ratio) = 0.60, 95% CI, 0.46-0.77, p < 0.01), whereas the implementation of rescue treatment (OR = 5.94, 95% CI, 3.15-11.19, p < 0.01) and stenting rate (OR = 10.06, 95%CI, 4.43-22.85, p < 0.01) were higher in the ICAS-LVO group. Other parameters were similar in both groups.
conclusionThe use of ET is a safe and effective therapeutic option for AIS due to ICAS-LVO. Stent-retriever thrombectomy and stent-implement are the preferred primary and rescue therapies respectively for ICAS-LVO. Less symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage and higher stenting were observed in the ICAS-LVO compared to the embolic-LVO group.
