Bilateral middle cerebral artery occlusions treated with simultaneous bilateral thrombectomy: an approach to multivessel occlusions.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
The scarcely described phenomenon of acute ischaemic stroke due to bilateral large vessel occlusions and limited reports of its treatment raises the question about the best method for revascularisation. We present a simultaneous bilateral thrombectomy method on a patient with acute bilateral middle cerebral artery occlusions. This technique resulted in successful vessel recanalisation within 35 min without haemorrhagic complications-deeming the method both safe and effective. Patient outcome was unfavourable, complicated by the patient's history of heart failure and other cardiac-related problems. Patient is residing at a skilled nursing facility with maximal assistance.
