A Case Report Examining a Contraindication for Mechanical Thrombectomy in the Setting of a Large Vessel Occlusion and a Concurrent Contralateral Intracranial Hemorrhage.

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
An acute ischemic stroke occurring contralateral to a hemorrhagic stroke is an uncommon occurrence that presents unique challenges. Hemorrhages have classically been described as a contraindication for mechanical thrombectomy. However, the natural course of a large vessel occlusion with or without decompressive hemicraniectomy is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. This paper investigates the origin of the contraindication for mechanical thrombectomy, the natural history of large vessel occlusion, risks of craniectomy, and risks of mechanical thrombectomy. Given the likelihood of poor outcomes without intervention, mechanical thrombectomy could be considered in select individuals, but future studies into the natural course of contralateral ischemic and hemorrhagic strokes would better guide management.
