The utility of NIRS in follow-up of patients with acute ischaemic stroke treated with IV thrombolysis and mechanical thrombectomy in the emergency department.

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
Revascularization treatments (IV thrombolysis, mechanical thrombectomy) related to ischemic stroke have developed in recent years. With devices such as NIRS, non-invasive monitoring of treatment efficacy is provided. In this study, we aimed to use near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) as an objective monitoring method to see the effect of intravenous (IV) thrombolysis or mechanical thrombectomy treatments applied for cerebral oxygenation in patients with acute ischemic stroke. This study was carried out as a prospective study involving patients admitted to the emergency department in the years 2021-2022. NIRS measured regional oxygen saturation (rSO2) of both hemispheres of the brain before IV thrombolysis treatment, during the treatment at 0. min, 15. min, 30. min, 45. min, 60. min, after the treatment, and before and after the mechanical thrombectomy procedure. The significance level of the change in rSO2 values measured by NIRS was examined. 80 patients were included in the study. IV thrombolysis was applied to 58 patients, mechanical thrombectomy was applied to 5 of them, and both treatments were applied to 17 of them. In patients receiving IV thrombolysis, a significant difference was found in the affected hemisphere between the NIRS values measured at 0.min-15.min, 0.min-30.min, 0.min-45.min, 0.min-60.min, 0.min-post-treatment, 15.min-60.min (p < 0.001). In the patients included in the study, there was a strong and significant negative correlation between the deltaNIHSS value and the deltaNIRS values in the affected hemisphere (r=- 0.307, p = 0.013). There was a significant increase in the NIRS measurement values during and after the IV thrombolysis treatment in the affected hemisphere in the group with clinical improvement (p < 0.001). It is thought that IV thrombolysis or mechanical thrombectomy treatment applied to patients admitted to the emergency department with acute ischemic stroke can be followed objectively by NIRS.
