Plaque Characteristics in Young Adults With Symptomatic Intracranial Atherosclerotic Stenosis: A Preliminary Study.
Article in Frontiers in neurology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
purposeTo determine how intracranial vascular wall and atherosclerosis plaque characteristics differ between young and old adults with sICAS.
methodsEighty-four consecutive patients with sICAS who underwent high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging (HRMRI) from December 2017 to July 2020 were retrospectively collected. These participants were divided into young adult group (18-50 years,
resultsYoung patients with sICAS had significantly smaller maximum wall thickness (1.45 ± 0.38 vs.1.75 ± 0.51 mm
conclusionYoung patients with sICAS have smaller maximum wall thickness and greater ability to reconstruct, and are more likely to show positive remodeling, which may lead to some atherosclerotic lesions being missed. Young patients with evidence of vessel narrowing should be carefully examined for presence of high-risk atherosclerotic plaque.
