1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Objectives: We sought to assess whether there were any parameter(s) on baseline computed-tomography-perfusion (CTP) strongly correlating with final-infarct-volume, and infarct volume progression after endovascular recanalization of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) with primary distal, medium vessel occlusion (DMVO). Materials and Methods: We performed a retrospective analysis of consecutive AIS patients who were successfully recanalized by thrombectomy for DMVO. By comparing baseline CTP and follow-up MRI, we evaluated the correlation between baseline infarct and hypoperfusion volumes, and final infarct volume and infarct volume progression. We also examined their effect on good clinical outcome at 3 months (defined as an mRS score of 0 to 2). Results: Between January 2018 and January 2021, 38 patients met the inclusion criteria (76% [29/38] female, median age 75 [66-86] years). Median final infarct volume and infarct volume progression were 8.4 mL [IQR: 5.2-44.4] and 7.2 mL [IQR: 4.3-29.1] respectively. TMax > 10 sec volume was strongly correlated with both (r = 0.831 and r = 0.771 respectively, p < 0.0001), as well as with good clinical outcome (-0.5, p = 0.001). A higher baseline TMax > 10 sec volume increased the probability of a higher final-infarct-volume (r Conclusion: TMax > 10 sec volume on baseline CTP correlates strongly with final infarct volume as well as with clinical outcome after mechanical thrombectomy for an AIS with DMVO.
