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

To improve the success of mechanical thrombectomy, three-dimensional turbo spin-echo (3D-TSE) sequences on T2WI can be employed to estimate the vascular structure of the posterior circulation. In addition to the short imaging time of 3D-TSE T2WI (33 sec), it can visualize the outer diameter of the main cerebral artery, including the occluded vessels. However, to date, the efficacy of mechanical thrombectomy in the posterior circulation remains unclear, and safer and more efficient mechanical thrombectomy procedures are required. Assessment of the anatomical variations in the posterior circulation using 3D-TSE T2WI is valuable for access decisions, device selection, and safe device guidance and retrieval techniques to the target vessel. Herein, we present representative cases of basilar artery and posterior cerebral artery occlusions in our institute and describe the utility of preoperative 3D-TSE T2WI in these patients.
