Clot Meniscus Sign Is Associated With Thrombus Permeability and Choice of Mechanical Thrombectomy Technique in Acute Middle Cerebral Artery Occlusion.

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 Purpose: The method of mechanical thrombectomy (MT) is related to vascular anatomy and stroke etiology. Meniscus sign and thrombus permeability as imaging markers may be instructive for the selection of MT. This study aims to clarify the relationship among meniscus sign, thrombus permeability, and choice of MT in patients with acute middle cerebral artery occlusion. Materials and Methods: A total of 111 patients with acute middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) who underwent MT were retrospectively analyzed. Clot meniscus sign was defined as the appearance of meniscoid/edge-like or single- or double-wall contrast channels besides or around insular blood clots. The radiographic, clinical, and surgical data of patients with MCAO with or without meniscus sign were compared. Results: The meniscus sign positive group ( Conclusion: Patients with MCAO with positive meniscus sign have higher thrombus permeability and are more suitable for CA to acquire better clinical outcomes.
