Successful mechanical thrombectomy using a combined technique for internal carotid artery occlusion with persistent primitive trigeminal artery.
Article in Surgical neurology international, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
backgroundThe prevalence of persistent primitive trigeminal artery (PPTA) has been reported to be 0.1-0.6%. We report the successful recanalization of internal carotid artery (ICA) without embolization to new vascular territory (ENT) using a combined technique in a case of ICA occlusion with PPTA. CASE DESCRIPTION: A 65-year-old female presented with sudden consciousness disorder. The Glasgow Coma Scale score was 7 (E1, V1, M5) and National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score was 28. Magnetic resonance diffusion-weighted imaging showed areas of high signal intensity in the left frontal lobe, parietal lobe, insular cortex, and corona radiata. Magnetic resonance angiography showed occlusion of the left ICA distal to a PPTA. We performed mechanical thrombectomy (MT) using a combined technique with a balloon guide catheter (BGC), aspiration catheter, and stent retriever and achieved complete recanalization without ENT. The patient experienced a good postoperative recovery course. At 6 months, her Modified Rankin Scale score was 2.
conclusionMT using a combined technique with BGC would be useful to prevent embolization to the posterior circulation through the PPTA in cases of ICA occlusion with PPTA.
