The role of asymmetrical prominent veins sign in early neurological deterioration of acute ischemic stroke patients.

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: Asymmetrical prominent veins sign (APVS) often appears on susceptibility-weighted angiography (SWAN) images in patients with acute stroke. Early neurological deterioration (END) is highly correlated with survival prognosis in patients with ischemic stroke. This study sought to explore the relationship between APVS and END in patients with acute stroke. Methods: The subjects retrospectively enrolled in this study were patients with acute ischemic stroke in the middle cerebral artery supply area. All patients underwent head MRI, including the SWAN sequence, within 7 days of stroke symptom onset. END was defined as clinical deterioration or recurrence within 72 h after ischemic stroke. The volume of infarction on diffusion-weighted imaging was measured. Univariate and multivariate analyses were used to analyze the relationship between APVS and END. Spearman correlation between APVS grades and infarct volume, white matter hyperintensity (WMH) volume, and offending vessel were also analyzed. Results: A total of 157 patients with middle cerebral artery infarct between September 2018 and April 2020 were included in the study. APVS appeared on MRI in 84 of 157 patients, and 34 of 157 patients were diagnosed with END. In patients with END, the proportion of severe APVS was higher than in patients without END ( Conclusion: APVS may be an important predictor of END in patients with acute ischemic stroke.
