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

backgroundTo quantify the effectiveness and safety of the Trevo® Retriever for endovascular treatment of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients in China.

methodsTrevo Retriever Registry (China) was a prospective, multicenter, non-comparative, open-label study of patients with AIS treated with the Trevo Retriever. The primary outcome was the proportion of patients achieving an expanded Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction (eTICI) score ≥2b at the end of endovascular treatment. Secondary outcomes included first-pass eTICI score ≥2b and 90-day modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score ≤2.

resultsThe Trevo Retriever Registry (China) enrolled and followed 201 patients (62.1 ± 12.5 years-old; 70.6% male) at 11 centers. The pre-procedure NIHSS score and ASPECTS were 16 (interquartile range (IQR), 13-21) and 7 (IQR, 6-9), respectively, and 188 (93.5%) patients had an mRS score of 0 prior to the stroke. The main stroke etiology was large artery atherosclerosis, accounting for 71.6% (144/201) of patients. Post-procedure eTICI ≥2b was 98.4% (187/190). First-pass eTICI ≥2b was 74.7% (136/182). The 90-day good outcome (mRS ≤2) rate was 73.6% (148/201). The 90-day all-cause mortality was 5.5% (11/201). Neurological deterioration at 24 h post-procedure was observed in 7.7% (15/195) patients. Embolism in a new territory was seen in one patient (0.5%). Two (1.0%) procedure-related adverse events (AEs) occurred, which were intra-procedure cerebral artery embolism. No Trevo related AEs occurred.

conclusionsThis real-world study of the Trevo Retriever in China demonstrated a high rate of revascularization and first-pass success that resulted in an overall high good function outcome rate and low mortality.
