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
purposePretreatment ischemic core volume is conceptually equal to follow-up infarct volume (FIV) in patients with successful recanalization. However, there is sometimes an absolute volume difference (AD) between pretreatment core volume and FIV. The aim was to compare the AD values between the Bayesian and the singular value decomposition (SVD) methods with time from onset-to-imaging in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients undergoing mechanical thrombectomy.
methodsConsecutive AIS patients were included if they had the following: (1) anterior large vessel occlusion (internal carotid or middle cerebral artery); (2) within 24 h of onset; (3) pretreatment CT perfusion (CTP); (4) successful recanalization (mTICI ≥ 2b); and (5) 24-h diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI). FIV was measured on 24-h DWI. The AD value between FIV and the pretreatment core volume was calculated for Bayesian and SVD methods. Spearman's rank correlation coefficient (rho) was calculated as appropriate.
resultsIn the 47 patients enrolled (25 men; median age 78 years; median baseline National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale, 22), the median time from onset-to-imaging and onset-to-recanalization was 136 and 220 min, respectively. Shorter onset-to-imaging time was correlated with a larger AD value, and more trend was seen in the SVD method (rho = - 0.28, p = 0.05) compared with the Bayesian method (rho = - 0.08). A larger pretreatment core volume was correlated with a larger AD value, and this tendency was slightly stronger for the SVD (rho = 0.63, p < 0.01) than for the Bayesian (rho = 0.32, p = 0.03) method.
conclusionsThe Bayesian method might be more correlated with FIV than the SVD method in patients with a large ischemic lesion immediately after stroke onset, but not perfect.
