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: Acute ischemic stroke (AIS) with intracranial large vessel occlusion (LVO) is refractory to reperfusion because of the underlying intracranial atherosclerosis (ICAS), and this condition often requires salvage methods such as balloon angioplasty and rescue stenting (RS). In this study, we investigated the short-term outcomes of RS after failed mechanical thrombectomy (MT) for the treatment of acute intracranial atherosclerotic occlusion. Methods: We retrospectively evaluated the clinical data of 127 patients who underwent MT for acute intracranial atherosclerotic occlusion in our hospital between August 2018 and January 2022. The degree of recanalization was evaluated immediately after the treatment by Modified Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction (mTICI). The modified Rankin Scale (mRS) was used 90 days after treatment to evaluate the neurological functions. In addition, the incidence of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH) and postoperative mortality within 90 days of treatment were calculated. Results: Among the 127 patients, 86 patients (67.7%) had revascularization (mTICI 2b-3) immediately after MT (non-RS group), and RS was performed in 41 patients (32.3%) after MT failure (RS group). No difference in the sICH rate was observed between the two groups (17.1 vs. 16.3%, Conclusions: Rescue stenting after MT failure might be a feasible rescue modality for treating acute intracranial atherosclerotic occlusion.
