Superior cerebellar artery occlusion remaining after thrombectomy for acute basilar artery occlusion.
Article in Scientific reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
To investigate the incidence and impact of superior cerebellar artery (SCA) occlusion remaining after thrombectomy for acute basilar artery occlusion (BAO). We retrospectively analyzed data from 116 patients who underwent thrombectomy for BAO. The patency of SCA was assessed on final angiograms. Clinical and radiologic data of the patients were retrieved from a prospectively collected database and analyzed. All patients underwent pretreatment and follow-up DWI to detect new infarctions in SCA territory. Ten patients (8.6%) had SCA occlusions on final angiograms. Of these, two patients had bilateral occlusions. A new infarction with a diameter ranged from 4 to 11 mm in corresponding SCA territory occurred in 5 of 10 patients. No patients with SCA occlusions experienced symptomatic cerebellar hemorrhage or malignant cerebellar infarction. Nine of 12 SCA occlusions showed spontaneous recanalization on follow-up CT angiography. Four of 10 patients showed 90-day favorable outcome (mRS 0-3) and 90-day mortality occurred in one patient. SCA occlusions remaining after thrombectomy for acute BAO had a benign clinical course. Most of these lesions recanalized spontaneously. Our study suggests that attempts to recanalize remnant SCA occlusion may be unnecessary after basilar artery thrombectomy.
