A review of acute ischemic stroke caused by distal, medium vessel occlusions.
Review in Interventional neuroradiology : journal of peritherapeutic neuroradiology, surgical procedures and related neurosciences, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06427187 (Outcomes of Mechanical Thrombectomy of Acute Ischemic Stroke Anterior Circulation Distal Vessel Occlusion), which is not on this map. Cited by 4 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.

Abstract
Acute ischemic stroke (AIS) due to distal, medium vessel occlusion (DMVO) is increasingly recognized as the next frontier for mechanical thrombectomy. Distal, medium vessel occlusions are typically defined as an occlusion in the following arteries: anterior cerebral artery, M2-M4 segments of the middle cerebral artery, posterior cerebral artery, posterior inferior cerebellar artery, anterior inferior cerebellar artery, and superior cerebellar artery. It is estimated that 25-40% of all AIS is due to DMVO. Because of the large burden of DMVO, the frequency of literature published regarding these occlusions has greatly increased in recent years. Furthermore, treatment modalities have been created specifically for DMVOs. Due to the rapidly evolving literature on this topic, remaining up to date on DMVO definitions, anatomy, management, imaging, and clinical course is difficult. In this review article, we synthesized existing literature regarding the aforementioned topics and discussed future directions.
