1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Stroke in the pediatric population is rare. Despite presentation similar to that seen in the adult patient, the diagnosis in a child can be missed or mistaken for a more common stroke mimic. Due to its rarity, there are no completed pediatric clinical trials investigating best treatment, though guidelines have been extrapolated from adult guidelines and retrospective cohort studies to include some combination of thrombolysis and mechanical thrombectomy. Rarer still is pediatric stroke caused by tumor embolus. We present the case of a young child diagnosed with stroke secondary to osteosarcoma embolism to the left internal carotid artery and review the relevant literature to discuss the considerations and challenges of treatment of stroke in the pediatric population.
