1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Efficacy and safety of vascular intervention combined with intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) was investigated in the treatment of acute intracranial arterial occlusion (AIAO). Ninety-two patients with AIAO treated in People's Hospital of Tongchuan from January 2014 to February 2016 were enrolled in this retrospective study. Forty-two patients were treated with vascular intervention (control group), while another 50 patients were treated with vascular intervention combined with IVT (study group). They were observed in terms of the improvement of clinical efficacy after treatment, the comparison of complications after treatment, the National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score after treatment, the modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score at 3 months after treatment, and the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) score at 3 months after treatment. Compared with those in the control group, patients in the study group had statistically significantly higher marked effectiveness and statistically significantly lower ineffectiveness (P=0.018), and a statistically significantly higher overall effective rate (P=0.042). The NIHSS score in the study group was statistically significantly lower than that in the control group after treatment (P=0.001). There was a statistically significant difference between the two groups in the mRS score at 3 months after treatment (Z=8.764, P>0.05). Compared with those in the control group, patients in the study group had a statistically significantly higher MMSE score after treatment, and a statistically significantly lower total incidence of postoperative complications (P=0.001). Vascular intervention combined with IVT has good efficacy and high safety in the treatment of AIAO, and the combination can statistically significantly improve patients' quality of life, so it has a good clinical application value.
