Is intravenous thrombolysis safe for acute ischemic stroke patients taking warfarin with INR 1.9?: A case report.

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
introductionIntravenous thrombolysis is not suitable for patients undergoing oral anticoagulants therapy, with INR > 1.7 or PT > 15 s. We described a case of intravenous thrombolysis in a patient with INR 1.9. PATIENT CONCERNS: A 66-year-old female patient was diagnosed with acute appendicitis complicated with atrial fibrillation. Seven days after admission, the patient suffered mixed aphasia with right limb asthenia. The NIHSS score was 11 points. and early infarction and hemorrhagic manifestations were not found in the emergency head CT. Thirty minutes after the onset of symptoms, NIHSS of patient increased from 11 to 14, but the INR was 1.92. DIAGNOSIS: Acute ischemic stroke.
interventionsThe IT therapy was recommended and all the therapy related risks were explained to the patient's parents. Briefly, the patient was given rTPA 38.5 mg. In addition to intravenous thrombolysis, VitK1 40 mg was simultaneously administered. OUTCOME: The patient's symptoms of drowsiness were improved. After 24 hours, all symptoms were stabilized with NIHSS of 2 points, there was a slight language obstruction, and no hemorrhagic transformation in head CT. Three months later, the review showed MRS score of 0, and the patient could take care of herself in daily life.
conclusionThe clinical guidelines are still the main reference for guiding clinical practice, and the main thrombolytic standards and contraindications for treatment still need to be conformed. On this basis, for individualized patients, clinicians must accurately judge the cause of acute stroke, to make optimal choice, reduce disability and mortality, and improve quality of life of patients.
