Case report: Thrombolysis in patients with acute ischemic stroke and cerebral cavernous malformation.
Article in Frontiers in neurology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Background: Cerebral cavernous malformation (CCM) is a rare disease associated with a latent risk of intracranial hemorrhage. However, due to limited evidence, the safety of recommending intravenous tissue plasminogen activators for patients with acute stroke and CCM remains uncertain. Methods: Our study identified five patients with acute stroke and CCM treated between 2017 and 2023 across two hospitals. A comprehensive literature review was conducted, incorporating three similar case reports and two retrospective studies. Results: Among 30 patients reviewed, three exhibited symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage, two of whom were women. Additionally, three patients presented with calcification in their CCM, with two experiencing symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage. Conclusion: The observed incidence of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage following intravenous tissue plasminogen activator administration appears to be elevated in patients with CCM. Therefore, before thrombolysis, a thorough evaluation of personalized risk-benefit ratios is crucial. Furthermore, conducting further research involving multiple centers and larger sample sizes is imperative to advance our understanding in this area, especially in identifying hemorrhage risk factors.
