Direct Stenting of Intracranial Atherosclerosis-related Acute Large Vessel Occlusion.
Article in Clinical neuroradiology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 papers.
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
purposeEndovascular reperfusion therapy (ERT) in patients with intracranial atherosclerosis (ICAS)-related acute large vessel occlusion (ALVO) may require different strategies based on the underlying culprit plaque lesion. This study investigated the effectiveness and safety of direct stent placement in ICAS-related ALVO compared with initially attempted mechanical thrombectomy (MT) with or without rescue treatment.
methodsDirect stenting for ICAS-related ALVO was performed in 30 consecutive patients between January 1, 2012, and December 31, 2018. As a control for comparison, MT with or without rescue stenting for patients with ICAS-related ALVO was performed in 73 consecutive patients during the same period. Clinical outcomes were assessed by measuring modified Rankin Scale (mRS) at 90 days.
resultsPatients who underwent direct stenting and those who underwent MT with or without rescue stenting showed no significant differences in baseline characteristics. There was a higher proportion of patients with mRS 0-2 at 90 days in the direct stenting group than in the MT with or without rescue stenting group [24 (80.0%) vs. 34 (46.6%); p = 0.004]. Successful recanalization to modified thrombolysis in cerebral infarction category 2b or 3 was achieved in 93.3% of patients who underwent direct stenting, and in 90.4% of patients who underwent MT with or without rescue stenting.
conclusionDirect stenting is an effective and safe option for ICAS-related ALVO. Further studies are needed to confirm that endovascular treatments are effective and safe in patients with ALVO and underlying ICAS.
