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

background and purposeCollateral circulation plays an important role in steno-occlusive internal carotid artery disease (ICAD) to reduce the risk of stroke. We aimed to investigate the utility of planning-free random vessel-encoded arterial spin-labeling (rVE-ASL) in assessing collateral flows in patients with ICAD. MATERIALS AND

methodsForty patients with ICAD were prospectively recruited. The presence and extent of collateral flow were assessed and compared between rVE-ASL and DSA by using Contingency (C) and Cramer V (V) coefficients. The differences in flow territory alterations stratified by stenosis ratio and symptoms, respectively, were compared between symptomatic (

resultsGood agreement was observed between rVE-ASL and DSA in assessing collateral flow (C = 0.762, V = 0.833, both

conclusionsrVE-ASL provides comparable information with DSA on the assessment of collateral flow. The flow alterations in the MCA territory may be attributed to symptomatic ICAD.
