Visualization of lenticulostriate artery by intracranial dark-blood vessel wall imaging and its relationships with lacunar infarction in basal ganglia: a retrospective study.
Article in European radiology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
objectivesThere is close relationship between lenticulostriate arteries (LSAs) and lacunar infarctions (LIs) of the basal ganglia. The study aims to visualize the LSAs using high-resolution vessel wall imaging (VWI) on 3T system and explore the correlation between LSAs and LIs.
methodsFifty-six patients with LIs in basal ganglia, and 44 age-matched control patients were enrolled and analyzed retrospectively. The raw VWI images were reformatted into coronal slices in minimum intensity projection for further observation of LSAs. The risk factors of LIs in basal ganglia were analyzed by univariate and multivariate logistic regression. The correlation and linear regression analysis between the LSAs and LIs, ipsilateral MCA-M1 plaques were investigated.
resultsThe total number (p < 0.01) and length (p < 0.01) of LSAs were statistically different between basal ganglias with and without LIs. The total number of LSAs and ipsilateral MCA-M1 plaques were independently related to LIs in basal ganglias. The mean length of LSAs were negatively correlated with number (r = - 0.33, p = 0.002) and volume (r = - 0.37, p = 0.001) of LIs. Age, drinking history, and mean length of LSAs were associated with LI occurrence in basal ganglia, and mean length of LSAs was correlated with larger volume of LIs.
conclusionsNumber of LSA reduction and ipsilateral MCA-M1 plaques were associated with the presence of LIs in basal ganglias. Age increasing, drinking history, and shorter LSAs were correlated with the increasing of LIs. KEY POINTS: • Patients with LIs tend to have shorter LSAs. • The characteristics of LSAs and ipsilateral MCA-M1 plaques are associated with LIs in basal ganglias. • Age, drinking history, and mean length of LSAs are correlated with LI features in basal ganglias.
