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
objectiveCerebral ischemic status is an indicator of bypass surgery. Both hemodynamics and glucose metabolism are significant factors for evaluating cerebral ischemic status. The occurrence of crossed cerebellar diaschisis (CCD) is influenced by the degree of supra-tentorial perfusion and glucose metabolism reduction. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between the CCD-related supra-tentorial blood flow and metabolic status before bypass surgery in patients with chronic and symptomatic ischemic cerebrovascular disease and the prognosis of surgery.
methodsTwenty-four participants with chronic ischemic cerebrovascular disease who underwent hybrid positron emission tomography (PET)/magnetic resonance (MR) before bypass surgery were included. Arterial spin labeling (ASL)-MR and FDG-PET were used to measure blood flow and metabolism, respectively. The PET images were able to distinguish CCD. The supratentorial asymmetry index (AI) and volume in the decreased blood flow region, decreased metabolism region and co-decreased region on the affected side, except for the infarct area, were respectively obtained before bypass surgery. The neurological status was determined using the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) and modified Rankin Scale (mRS) scores. Differences between CCD-positive (CCD +) and CCD-negative (CCD-) groups were investigated.
resultsFourteen (58%) of the 24 patients were diagnosed as CCD +. Before surgery, the NIHSS and mRS scores of the CCD + were significantly higher than those of the CCD- (1.0(1.0) vs. 0.0(1.0), P = 0.013; 1.0(1.5) vs. 0.0(1.5), P = 0.048). After the surgery, the NIHSS and mRS scores of the CCD + showed a significant decrease (0.0(1.0) to 0.0(0.0), P = 0.011; 0.0(0.5) to 0.0(0.0), P = 0.008). Significant differences were observed in the supra-tentorial decreased metabolism region (all Ps ≤ 0.05) between the CCD + and CCD- groups, but no differences were observed in the preprocedural decreased supratentorial blood flow region (P > 0.05). The preprocedural NIHSS score was strongly correlated with the metabolism AI value in the decreased metabolism region (r = 0.621, P = 0.001) and the co-decreased region (r = 0.571, P = 0.004).
conclusionsSupratentorial blood flow and metabolism are important indicators of CCD. This study showed that CCD + patients benefited more from bypass surgery than CCD- patients. Staging based on CCD-related supra-tentorial blood flow and metabolic status by hybrid PET/MR may help to personalize treatment.
