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 and purposePrevious studies on the presence of asymmetrical prominent cortical and medullary vessel signs (APCV/APMV) and collateral circulation in patients with internal carotid artery occlusion internal carotid artery occlusion (ICAO) are rare, and the conclusions are inconsistent. Our study aimed to investigate the relationship between the presence of APCV/APMV and collateral circulation in patients with ICAO.
methodsPatients with acute ischemic stroke with ICAO were recruited in this study. All 74 patients were divided into two groups depending on the presence of APCV and APMV. The status of the cerebral arterial circle (CAC) was graded as poor or good. The poor CAC was defined as MCA was invisible. Severe stroke was defined as cerebral watershed infarction (CWI) or territorial infarction (TI). Clinical and radiological markers were compared between these two groups. Logistic regression was used to investigate the association between the APCV/APMV and clinical and radiological markers.
resultsA total of 74 patients with ICAO were enrolled. Forty-three patients (58.1%) presented with an APCV and APMV was found in 35 (47.2%) patients. Compared with patients with non-APCV, patients with APCV had a more severe stroke (
conclusionsOur study demonstrates that poor CAC was independently associated with the presence of the APCV in patients with ICAO. Severe stroke was independently associated with the APMV.
