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

objectivesTo investigate whether the imaging changes on high-resolution vessel wall imaging (HR-VWI) in patients before and after percutaneous transluminal angioplasty and stenting (PTAS) contribute to predicting the clinical outcome.

methodsThe study included 24 severe intracranial artery stenosis (SICAS) patients undergoing PTAS with Wingspan Stent between 2018 and 2020 and had a 1-year follow-up. Three HR-VWI sessions (preprocedural, early [within 24 h], and delayed postprocedural [134.7 ± 27.1 days)]) in each subject were performed with 3-Tesla MRI. We evaluated periprocedural HR-VWI changes in patients with and without recurrent cerebral ischemic symptoms (RCIS) within 1-year follow-up.

resultsOn CE-T1WI of the patients without RCIS, a significant decrease in enhanced area was observed on early postprocedural (0.04 ± 0.02 cm

conclusionThe preliminary results showed the presence of reduced contrast enhancement immediately after PTAS may indicate less recurrent stroke events within 1 year. Further studies are necessary to confirm the phenomena in a longer observation period. KEY POINTS: • Early postprocedural high-resolution vessel imaging (HR-VWI) within 24 h can effectively predict a 1-year outcome following intracranial stenting. • For stenotic lesions after stenting without reduced contrast enhancement on HR-VWI within 24 h may need closer clinical surveillance for potentially higher risk of stroke events within 1 year.
