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

Objective: In-stent thrombosis (IST) is a known complication after stent-assisted coil (SAC) embolization. We report a case of mechanical thrombectomy using a stent retriever (SR) for IST and share our experience with this treatment to prevent a poor outcome in future cases. Case Presentation: The patient was a 62-year-old man. SAC embolization for an unruptured left internal carotid artery (ICA) aneurysm was performed. Three weeks after discharge, right hemiparesis and aphasia developed. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) demonstrated cerebral infarction in the left middle cerebral artery (MCA) territory and the left ICA was occluded. His relatives told us that the patient discontinued taking antiplatelet drugs. IST was diagnosed and emergency thrombectomy was performed. First, we tried to introduce an aspiration catheter or balloon catheter into the occluded lesion, but they were unable to be sufficiently inserted to the distal site. Therefore, we used a SR even though it carried a risk of friction on the deployed stent. The occluded artery was finally recanalized using the SR, but the stent became shortened. For the treatment strategy, sufficient medication (antithrombogenic agents and edaravone) should be administered first, followed by mechanical treatment. In mechanical treatment, thrombus fragmentation with a guidewire or balloon and aspiration should be attempted first. New aspiration catheters to carry the devices to the far distal site easily are now available. Conclusion: SRs cannot be utilized for thrombectomy with a stent. In emergency situations, careful consideration during troubleshooting rather than using a SR is needed.
