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: Previous studies have shown a potential beneficial effect of endovascular therapy (EVT) in patients with acute basilar artery occlusion (BAO). It was unclear that whether atrial fibrillation (AF) can affect the clinical outcomes for BAO patients treated with EVT. Objectives: To investigate the association between AF and clinical outcomes, and whether AF can modify the efficacy and safety of EVT in patients with BAO. Design: We conducted a multicenter, nationwide, retrospective analysis to investigate how the presence of AF affects treatment allocation for BAO patients. Methods: The endovascular treatment for acute basilar artery occlusion (ATTENTION) registry was a multicenter, prospective study in China that included acute BAO patients who underwent EVT or received best medical management (BMM) between 2017 and 2021. The outcomes include the distribution of 3-month modified Rankin scale (mRS) score, functional independence (defined as mRS 0-3), symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage, and mortality. Results: 2134 patients were included in the study, of which 619 had AF and 1515 did not have AF. The median age was 65 (interquartile range [IQR]: 56-73) years, and 689 (32.3%) patients were female. Multivariate regression analysis indicated no significant association existed between AF and the distribution of mRS (adjusted common odds ratio, 1.05 [95% CI: 0.88, 1.25]; Conclusions: Our results illustrated that the effect of EVT did not differ statistically in acute ischemic stroke patients with and without AF. Moreover, no significant association between AF and functional or safety outcomes could be detected at 90 days.
