Basilar artery thrombus magnetic susceptibility for cardioembolic stroke identification.

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 susceptibility vessel sign (SVS) on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the middle cerebral artery is a reliable biomarker for cardioembolic ischemic stroke. As for the basilar artery (BA), the magnetic susceptibility-related image signs, the quantitative evaluation of the corresponding thrombus, and their prediction of cardioembolism require further study. This study aimed to assess thrombus susceptibility-related image characteristics using susceptibility-weighted imaging (SWI) and quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM) MRI in acute BA occlusion and analyze their associations with cardioembolic ischemic stroke. A total of 41 consecutive acute ischemic stroke patients with BA occlusion within 48 h of onset were recruited. A three-dimensional (3D) multi-echo scan on a 3.0T MRI scanner was applied to all participants, and the quantitative susceptibility value of the BA thrombus was computed using QSM. The presence and diameter of SWI SVS in patients with cardioembolic stroke were not significantly different from those with other etiologies. While BA thrombus's susceptibility in patients with cardioembolic stroke was significantly higher than that in patients with non-cardioembolic stroke (0.42±0.09
