Mechanical thrombectomy in stroke patients of working age: Real-world outcomes in Sweden.
Article in European stroke journal, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Introduction: Outcomes after mechanical thrombectomy (MT) in young stroke patients remain elusive due to small patient cohorts. We sought to determine outcomes after MT in stroke patients between ages 18 and 64 years and compare with outcomes in older patients in a large national stroke cohort. Patients and methods: We used the Swedish National Stroke Registry and the Swedish National Endovascular Thrombectomy Registry to identify all patients treated with MT for anterior circulation occlusions. We examined outcome measures in terms of functional independence at 90 days (modified Rankin Scale score of 0-2), symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage (sICH), and mortality at 90 days with multivariable logistic regression analysis. Results: Of 2143 patients, 565 were between 18 and 64 years (26.4%) and 1179 (55.0%) were males. Analysis showed that patient aged 18-64 achieved higher rate of functional independence at 90 days (46.2% vs 28.4%, Conclusion: Patients aged 18-64 years demonstrated better outcome after thrombectomy regarding functional independence, sICH, and mortality at 90 days when compared to older ages.
