Post-ASPECTS and Post-PC-ASPECTS Predict the Outcome of Anterior and Posterior Ischemic Stroke Following Thrombectomy.
Article in Risk management and healthcare policy, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Purpose: In this study, we aimed to determine whether post-Alberta Stroke Project Early CT Changes Score (post-ASPECTS) in anterior stroke and post-(posterior circulation) PC-ASPECTS in posterior stroke on CT can predict post-endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) functional outcomes among patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) after EVT. Patients and Methods: A total of 247 consecutive patients aged 18 and over receiving EVT for LVO-related AIS were recruited into a prospective database. The data was retrospectively analyzed between March 2019 and February 2022 from two comprehensive tertiary care stroke centers: Foshan Sanshui District People's Hospital and First People's Hospital of Foshan in China. Patient parameters included EVT within 24 hr of symptom onset, premorbid modified Rankin scale (mRS) ≤2, presence of distal and terminal cerebral blood vessel occlusion, and subsequent 24-72-hr post-stroke onset CT scan. Univariate comparisons were performed using the Fisher's exact test or Results: Overall, 236 individuals with 196 anterior circulation ischemic strokes and 40 posterior strokes of basilar artery occlusion were examined. Post-ASPECTS in anterior stroke and post-pc-ASPECTS as strong positive markers of favorable outcome at 90 days post-EVT; and lower rates of inpatient mortality/hospice discharge, 90-day mortality, and 90-day poor outcome were observed. Moreover, patients in the post-ASPECTS ≥ 7 cohort experienced shorter door-to-recanalization time (DRT), puncture-to-recanalization time (PRT), and last known normal-to-puncture time (LKNPT). Conclusion: Post-ASPECTS ≥7 in anterior circulation AIS and post-pc-ASPECTS ≥7 in posterior circulation can serve as strong prognostic markers of functional outcome after EVT.
