1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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: Successful recanalization after the first pass of the device in endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) can significantly improve patients' prognosis. We aimed to investigate the possible factors that influence achieving the first-pass effect (FPE). Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the patients who underwent EVT caused by anterior circulation large vessel occlusion stroke (ALVOS) in our center. The FPE was defined as a successful recanalization [modified Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction (mTICI) 2b/3 defined as modified FPE (mFPE); mTICI 3 as true FPE (tFPE)] after one pass of the device without rescue therapy. Univariate and multivariate regression analyses were used to explore the predictors of FPE and the relationship between FPE and prognosis. Results: There were 278 patients (age, 69.3 ± 10.9 years, male, 51.1%) included, 30.2% of them achieved mFPE, while 21.2% achieved tFPE. We found the higher clot burden score (CBS), the truncal-type occlusion, and the favorable anatomy of both extracranial and intracranial segments of the internal carotid artery (ICA) were associated with achieving mFPE. The higher CBS and truncal-type occlusion were statistically significant predictors of tFPE. Moreover, FPE was significantly associated with improved clinical outcomes, regardless of mFPE and tFPE. Conclusions: The CBS, tortuosity of ICA, and angiographic occlusion type were independent predictors of achieving FPE. The rate of improved clinical and safety outcomes was higher in patients with FPE, which has important clinical significance.
