Aspiration Thrombectomy in Patients with Large Vessel Occlusion and Mild Stroke: A Single-Center Experience.
Article in Medical science monitor : international medical journal of experimental and clinical research, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to evaluate outcomes of patients with mild stroke, defined by National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score <6, caused by large vessel occlusion treated with aspiration thrombectomy. MATERIAL AND METHODS Data from the endovascular stroke registry of our center were retrospectively analyzed. Anterior or posterior circulation strokes with NIHSS score <6 upon admission were analyzed. The assessment of a good clinical outcome (modified Rankin scale score 0-2) at day 90 was the primary endpoint. Symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage, defined in European Cooperative Acute Stroke Study grade III, and mortality at day 90 were the safety measures. A successful endovascular procedure was defined as a Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction (TICI) score of 2b or 3. RESULTS We included 27 patients treated with immediate mechanical thrombectomy, 19 (70.4%) in the anterior circulation and 8 (29.6%) in the posterior circulation. The mean age was 69.8±12.3 years and 40.7% were male. Thirteen patients (48.1%) received bridging intravenous thrombolysis before endovascular thrombectomy. Twenty-five patients (92.6%) underwent the direct aspiration first-pass technique "ADAPT" as the first choice of endovascular procedure. Successful recanalization was achieved in 25 patients (92.6%). Twenty-one patients (77.8%) had a good functional outcome at the 3-month follow-up, 1 (3.7%) symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage was observed, and 2 patients (7.4%) died. CONCLUSIONS Immediate aspiration thrombectomy may be a safe and feasible first-line treatment option in patients suffering from mild stroke due to large vessel occlusion in the anterior and posterior circulation.
