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: Following mechanical thrombectomy (MT), patients with large artery occlusive acute ischemic stroke (LAO-AIS) often have cerebral herniation due to its complications, resulting in poor prognosis. Decompressive craniectomy (DC) can markedly improve patient prognosis. This study aimed to verify the predictive value of clinical parameters such as the systemic immune-inflammatory index (SII) for DC in patients with LAO-AIS after MT. Methods: Clinical data of a total of 173 patients with LAO-AIS treated with MT between January 2020 and January 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients receiving DC were grouped into an experimental group or a control group (no DC). The patients were randomly divided into the training set ( Results: The SII value in the experimental group (median: 2851.1×10 Conclusions: The SII at admission is an independent predictor for the requirement of DC in patients with LAO-AIS after MT. The SII-based nomogram helps doctors make decisions on whether DC is needed timely and rationally, and thereby may improve the prognosis of these patients.
