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

We aimed to validate the prognostic ability and assess interrater reliability of a recently suggested measurement-based definition of near-occlusion with full collapse (distal ICA diameter ≤ 2.0 mm and/or ICA ratio ≤ 0.42). 118 consecutive patients with symptomatic near-occlusion were prospectively included and assessed on computed tomography angiography by 2 blinded observers, 26 (22%) had full collapse. At 2 days after presenting event, the risk of preoperative stroke was 3% for without full collapse and 16% for with full collapse (p = 0.01). At 28 days, this risk was 16% for without full collapse and 22% for with full collapse (p = 0.22). Interrater reliability was perfect (kappa 1.0). Thus, near-occlusion with full collapse should be defined as distal ICA ≤ 2.0 mm and/or ICA ratio ≤ 0.42 in order to detect cases with very high risk of early stroke recurrence.
