Accuracy of Four Different CT Perfusion Thresholds for Ischemic Core Volume and Location Estimation Using IntelliSpace Portal.
Article in Journal of cardiovascular development and disease, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Computed tomography perfusion (CTP) is frequently used in the triage of ischemic stroke patients for endovascular thrombectomy (EVT). We aimed to quantify the volumetric and spatial agreement of the CTP ischemic core estimated with different thresholds and follow-up MRI infarct volume on diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI). Patients treated with EVT between November 2017 and September 2020 with available baseline CTP and follow-up DWI were included. Data were processed with Philips IntelliSpace Portal using four different thresholds. Follow-up infarct volume was segmented on DWI. In 55 patients, the median DWI volume was 10 mL, and median estimated CTP ischemic core volumes ranged from 10-42 mL. In patients with complete reperfusion, the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) showed moderate-good volumetric agreement (range 0.55-0.76). A poor agreement was found for all methods in patients with successful reperfusion (ICC range 0.36-0.45). Spatial agreement (median Dice) was low for all four methods (range 0.17-0.19). Severe core overestimation was most frequently (27%) seen in Method 3 and patients with carotid-T occlusion. Our study shows moderate-good volumetric agreement between ischemic core estimates for four different thresholds and subsequent infarct volume on DWI in EVT-treated patients with complete reperfusion. The spatial agreement was similar to other commercially available software packages.
