Endovascular therapy in patients with internal carotid artery occlusion and patent circle of Willis.
Article in Journal of neurointerventional surgery, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundOcclusion of the internal carotid artery (ICA) may extend into the middle or anterior cerebral artery (ICA-T) or be confined to the intracranial (ICA-I) or extracranial segment (ICA-E). While there is excellent evidence for endovascular therapy (EVT) in ICA-T occlusions, studies on EVT in non-tandem ICA-I or ICA-E occlusions are scarce.
objectiveTo characterize EVT-treated patients with ICA-I- and ICA-E occlusion by comparing them with ICA-T occlusions.
methodsThe German Stroke Registry (GSR), a national, multicenter, prospective registry was searched for EVT-treated patients with isolated ICA occlusion between June 2015 and December 2021. We stratified patients by ICA occlusion site: (a) ICA-T, (b) ICA-I, (c) ICA-E. Baseline factors, procedural variables, technical (modified Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction (mTICI)), and functional outcomes (modified Rankin scale score at 3 months) were analyzed.
resultsOf 13 082 GSR patients, 2588 (19.8%) presented with an isolated ICA occlusion, thereof 1946 (75.2%) ICA-T, 366 (14.1%) ICA-I, and 276 (10.7%) ICA-E patients. The groups differed in age (77 vs 76 vs 74 years, P
conclusionPatient characteristics and outcomes differ substantially between ICA-T, ICA-I, and ICA-E occlusions. These results warrant further studies on EVT in ICA-I and ICA-E patients.
