A Novel Endovascular Therapy Strategy for Acute Ischemic Stroke Due to Intracranial Atherosclerosis-Related Large Vessel Occlusion: Stent-Pass-Aspiration-resCuE-Micowire-Angioplasty (SPACEMAN) Technique.
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 5 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
backgroundThere is no clear consensus on the optimal endovascular treatment strategy for patients with ischemic stroke caused by ICAS-related large vessel occlusion (LVO). SPACEMAN, a novel thrombectomy technique that entails passing an aspiration catheter over the stent retriever and then retaining the microwire for angioplasty, has not been described. The aim of this prospective study was to evaluate our initial application of SPACEMAN and compare this technique with the Solumbra technique.
methodsForty-four consecutive patients with acute ischemic stroke resulting from ICAS-related LVO were randomly divided into two groups: Solumbra group (
resultsThe SPACEMAN group showed reduced mean time from femoral access to recanalization compared with the Solumbra group (39.55 ± 10.63 min vs. 50.73 ± 9.89 min,
conclusionsThis study suggests that SPACEMAN exhibits a shorter operation revascularization time than the standard thrombectomy. Complications and prognosis were comparable between the two groups. The safety and efficacy of this novel technique need to be studied in larger patient series.
