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 treatment for middle cerebral artery subocclusive thrombi is not standardized. Here, we report a case of M1 subocclusive thrombus with lateral lenticulostriate artery occlusion that was successfully treated with mechanical thrombectomy. This article describes a treatment strategy for M1 subocclusive thrombus, focusing on the indications for mechanical thrombectomy. A 58-year-old male on admission for pneumonia had a sudden onset of dysarthria and motor deficits. He has a history of dilated cardiomyopathy and underwent left ventricular assist device implantation 3 years ago. At onset, his National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score was nine. Computed tomography angiography demonstrated a filling defect in the distal right M1 segment of the middle cerebral artery. Angiography confirmed the presence of a subocclusive thrombus within the distal right M1 segment, although peripheral blood flow was maintained. Mechanical thrombectomy was performed for the M1 subocclusive thrombus using a direct aspiration first-pass technique, resulting in successful aspiration of the thrombus on the first pass. After the procedure, recanalization of the lateral lenticulostriate artery was detected, and the patient demonstrated full recovery (NIHSS score 0). Mechanical thrombectomy can be considered as a treatment option in cases of acute ischemic stroke caused by M1 subocclusive thrombus with lateral lenticulostriate artery occlusion, which presents with a high NIHSS score or neurological deterioration.
