The short- and long-term efficacy of intravascular stenting in the treatment of intracranial artery stenosis.
Article in American journal of translational research, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
objectiveTo investigate the short- and long-term efficacy of intravascular stenting in the treatment of intracranial artery stenosis.
methodsThis prospective study was conducted in 132 patients who underwent intravascular stenting for intracranial artery stenosis. In the perioperative period, complications were recorded. During a 2-year follow-up, postoperative stenosis rate, collateral circulation, changes in peak blood flow velocity, National Institute of Health stroke scale score, modified Rankin scale score, and restenosis were recorded. Factors influencing postoperative restenosis were analyzed using univariate analysis and multivariate logistic regression analysis.
resultsIn the perioperative period, 4 patients had complications, while 1 patient died. Compared with before operation, peak stenosis rate, blood flow velocity, National Institute of Health stroke scale score, and modified Rankin scale score at 1 year and 2 years after operation were significantly decreased, while the classification of collateral circulation was increased (all P<0.05). However, there were no statistical differences in the above indicators between 1-year and 2-year postoperative patients (all P>0.05). Two years after surgery, a total of 8 patients suffered from restenosis. There were statistical differences concerning age (≥70 years), the history of hypertension, diabetes, and coronary heart disease between the restenosis group and the non-restenosis group (all P<0.05). The results of multivariate analysis showed that the history of coronary heart disease and advanced age (≥70 years) were independent risk factors that affect the occurrence of postoperative restenosis.
conclusionThe short- and long-term efficacy of intravascular stenting in the treatment of intracranial artery stenosis is significant. What's more, a history of coronary heart disease and advanced age (≥70 years) are independent risk factors contributing to postoperative restenosis.
