Predictors of mTICI 2c/3 over 2b in patients successfully recanalized with mechanical thrombectomy.
Article in Annals of clinical and translational neurology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
objectiveFor patients presenting with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) caused by large vessel occlusions (LVO), mechanical thrombectomy (MT) is the treatment standard of care in eligible patients. Modified Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction (mTICI) grades of 2b, 2c, and 3 are all considered successful reperfusion; however, recent studies have shown achieving mTICI 2c/3 leads to better outcomes than mTICI 2b. This study aims to investigate whether any baseline preprocedural or periprocedural parameters are predictive of achieving mTICI 2c/3 in successfully recanalized LVO patients.
methodsWe conducted a retrospective multicenter cohort study of consecutive patients presenting with AIS caused by a LVO from 1 January 2017 to 1 January 2023. Baseline and procedural data were collected through chart review. Univariate and multivariate analysis were applied to determine significant predictors of mTICI 2c/3.
resultsA total of 216 patients were included in the study, with 159 (73.6%) achieving mTICI 2c/3 recanalization and 57 (26.4%) achieving mTICI 2b recanalization. We found that a higher groin puncture to first pass time (OR = 0.976, 95%CI: 0.960-0.992, p = 0.004), a higher first pass to recanalization time (OR = 0.985, 95%CI: 0.972-0.998, p = 0.029), a higher admission NIHSS (OR = 0.949, 95%CI: 0.904-0.995, p = 0.031), and a lower age (OR = 1.032, 95%CI: 1.01-1.055, p = 0.005) were associated with a decreased probability of achieving mTICI 2c/3.
interpretationA lower groin puncture to first pass time, a lower first pass to recanalization time, a lower admission NIHSS, and a higher age were independent predictors of mTICI 2c/3 recanalization.
