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
BackgroundThe Alberta Stroke Program Early CT scan Score (ASPECTS) is a reliable imaging biomarker of infarct extent on admission but the value of 24-hour ASPECTS evolution in day-to-day practice is not well studied, especially after successful reperfusion. We aimed to assess the association between ASPECTS evolution after successful reperfusion with functional and safety outcomes, as well as to identify the predictors of ASPECTS evolution.MethodsWe used data from an ongoing prospective multicenter registry. Stroke patients with anterior circulation large vessel occlusion treated with endovascular therapy (EVT) and achieved successful reperfusion (modified thrombolysis in cerebral ischemia (mTICI) 2b-3) were included. ASPECTS evolution was defined as one or more point decrease in ASPECTS at 24 hours.ResultsA total of 2366 patients were enrolled. In a fully adjusted model, ASPECTS evolution was associated with lower odds of favorable outcome (modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score 0-2) at 90 days (adjusted odds ratio (aOR) = 0.46; 95% confidence interval (CI) = 0.37-0.57). In addition, ASPECTS evolution was a predictor of excellent outcome (90-day mRS 0-1) (aOR = 0.52; 95% CI = 0.49-0.57), early neurological improvement (aOR = 0.42; 95% CI = 0.35-0.51), and parenchymal hemorrhage (aOR = 2.64; 95% CI, 2.03-3.44). Stroke severity, admission ASPECTS, total number of passes, complete reperfusion (mTICI 3 vs. mTICI 2b-2c) and good collaterals emerged as predictors of ASPECTS evolution.ConclusionASPECTS evolution is a strong predictor of functional and safety outcomes after successful endovascular therapy. Higher number of EVT attempts and incomplete reperfusion are associated with ASPECTS evolution at day 1.
