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
backgroundPreoperative neuroimaging assessment of collateral circulation is important for selecting acute ischemic stroke patients who are appropriate for endovascular treatment. We sought to validate the capillary index score system in an Asian population and compare its ability in predicting clinical outcomes with the American Society of Interventional and Therapeutic Neuroradiology/Society of Interventional Radiology grading system.
methodsWe continuously enrolled acute ischemic stroke patients from two neurological centers from March 2014 to March 2017. Multivariate analyses were performed to assess the capillary index score system with 90-day clinical outcome (modified Rankin scale score). The scoring systems were compared for predicting good (modified Rankin scale 0-2) and excellent (modified Rankin scale 0-1) functional outcomes using area under the receiver operating characteristic curves.
resultsWe identified 157 patients (median age, 65 years; 96 (61.1%) males), of whom 71 (45.2%) patients with 90-day good functional outcomes were selected. Capillary index score was independently associated with clinical outcome after endovascular treatment (OR 0.63; 95% CI 0.43-0.92;
conclusionsThe capillary index score system is a potentially useful tool for predicting 90-day functional outcomes in acute ischemic stroke patients after endovascular treatment.
