Pre-treatment risk markers for hemorrhagic transformation in posterior circulation acute ischemic stroke treated with reperfusion therapy.
Article in Journal of neurology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundHemorrhagic transformation (HT) is an uncommon complication of posterior circulation acute ischemic stroke (PCS) compared to anterior circulation stroke. Nevertheless, it remains a major concern especially following reperfusion therapy. This study aimed at identifying potential predictive factors associated with HT in PCS.
methodsConsecutive patients, from a multicenter cohort, with PCS treated by IVT or EVT or the combination of both, were included from December 2015 to May 2019. The European Cooperative Acute Stroke Study criteria was used to identify HT. Potential risk factors were analyzed using univariate and multivariable testing models.
resultsA total of 96 patients were included in our study. Median age was 66 (57-83) years, 54 patients (56%) were male and median baseline NIHSS was 8 (4-14). 77 patients (80%) received IVT and 54 patients (56%) benefited from EVT. HT occurred in 19 patients (20%), while sHT occurred in 3 patients (3%). HT was found to be associated with poor functional status at 3 months in univariate analysis (p = 0.0084). Multivariable analysis confirmed that higher baseline NIHSS (OR 1.1008; 95% CI [1.0216-1.1862]; p = 0.0117) and lobar topography of ischemia (OR 4.4275; 95% CI [1.3732-14.2753]; p = 0.0127) were independent predictors of the occurrence of HT. DISCUSSION: HT is associated with increased morbidity in patients with PCS; higher NIHSS and lobar ischemia were independent predictors of HT in our population. Easy-to-use predictive markers may help to tailor therapeutic management of patients with PCS.
