Mechanical thrombectomy for acute ischemic stroke with large vessel occlusion in pregnancy with mechanical heart valves: A case report.

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
Background: The management of anticoagulation for mechanical heart valves (MHVs) during pregnancy posed a special challenge. Mechanical thrombectomy (MT) was the standard treatment for acute ischemic stroke (AIS) in anterior circulation with large vessel occlusion. However, the efficacy and safety of MT in the treatment of acute ischemic stroke in pregnancy were unknown. Case presentation: A 29-year-old woman with MHVs in her first pregnancy at 7 weeks' gestation underwent MT because of a large occlusive thrombus in the end of the internal carotid artery despite therapeutic anticoagulation with low-molecular-weight heparin. This pregnant woman recovered well after MT with a modified rank score (mRS) of 0 at 90 days. Conclusion: At present, there was no standard protocol of anticoagulation therapy for pregnant women with MHVs. Acute ischemic stroke with large vessel occlusion in pregnancy was rare, but could bring devastating consequences for both mother and infant. Our case report demonstrated that MT could be safe and effective in pregnancy.
