Groin Puncture to Recanalization Time May Be a Strong Predictor of mTICI 2c/3 over mTICI 2b in Patients with Large Vessel Occlusions Successfully Recanalized with Mechanical Thrombectomy.

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
Mechanical thrombectomy (MT) is an important therapeutic option in the management of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) caused by large vessel occlusions (LVO). While achieving a modified thrombolysis in cerebral infarction (mTICI), grades of 2b, 2c, and 3 are all considered successful recanalization; recent literature suggests that mTICI grades of 2c/3 are associated with superior outcomes than 2b. The aim of this preliminary study is to determine whether any baseline or procedural parameters can predict whether successfully recanalized patients achieve an mTICI grade of 2c/3 over 2b. Consecutive patients from 9/2019 to 10/2021 who were successfully recanalized following MT for confirmed LVO were included in the study. Baseline and procedural data were collected through manual chart review and analyzed to ascertain whether any variables of interest could predict mTICI 2c/3. A total of 47 patients were included in the preliminary study cohort, with 35 (74.5%) achieving an mTICI score of 2c/3 and 12 (25.5%) achieving an mTICI score of 2b. We found that a lower groin puncture to recanalization time was a strong, independent predictor of TICI 2c/3 (
