Double stent retriever technique for rescue recanalization in refractory large vessel occlusions.

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
Acute ischemic stroke patients with large vessel occlusion (LVO) involving bifurcation usually have a difficult and high clot burden. By using conventional technique often resulting in a reduction in the possibility of successful recanalization. The double stent retriever technique can be considered for rescue recanalization. We reported a case of refractory terminal left internal carotid occlusion that was treated using double stent retriever technique. Two microcatheter were advanced across the occlusion were one to the superior branch of middle cerebral artery and another was on inferior branch. Both stent retrievers were pulled back together and complete recanalization was achieved. This technique were reported in some case series to be effective and based on our initial experience using this technique it seems the expansion improved after deployment of the second stent retriever and it traps the clot within its stent struts, to facilitate clot retrieval. Therefore, double stent retriever technique can be one of the choices for rescue recanalization in refractory clot occlusion and it may potentially help other clinicians in similar situations.
