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
purposeEarly recanalization for acute ischemic stroke (AIS) due to large vessel occlusion (LVO) by endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) is strongly related to improved functional outcomes. With data obtained from the Taiwan registry, the factors associated with mTICI 3 recanalization and clinical outcomes in EVT are investigated.
methodsFrom January 2014 to September 2016, 108 patients who underwent EVT for AIS due to LVO in 11 medical centers throughout Taiwan were included. Complete recanalization is defined as achieving modified thrombolysis in cerebral infarction (mTICI) grade 3. Good clinical outcomes are defined by the modified Rankin scale (mRS) 0-2 at 3 months after EVT. Clinical and imaging parameters for predicting mTICI 3 recanalization and good clinical outcomes are analyzed.
resultsOf the 108 patients who received EVT, 54 (50%) patients had mTICI 3 recanalization. Having received aspiration only and the use of IV-tPA are shown to be significant predictors for mTICI 3 recanalization with odds ratios of 2.61 and 2.53 respectively. Forty-six (42.6%) patients experienced good 3-month clinical outcomes (mRS 0-2). Pretreatment collateral statuses, NIHSS scores, time lapses between symptoms to needle, and the occurrence of hemorrhage at 24 h are all significant predictors for good outcomes with odds ratios of 2.88, 0.91, 0.99, and 0.31 respectively.
conclusionsPrediction of mTICI 3 recanalization and clinical outcomes offer valuable clinical information for treatment planning in EVT.
