Clinical and organisational quality indicators for the optimal management of acute ischaemic stroke in the era of thrombectomy: a scoping review and expert consensus study.
Article in BMJ open, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
objectiveThe purpose of this study is to identify clinical and organisational quality indicators conducive to the optimal interdisciplinary management of acute-phase ischaemic stroke.
methodA scoping review based on the six-step methodological framework of Arksey and O'Malley (2005) was conducted including a Delphi process with an experts committee. DATA SOURCES: MEDLINE, CINAHL, Academic search complete, Cochrane Library databases, in addition to Google Scholar and Google were searched through January 2015 to February 2023. ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA: French and English references, dealing with clinical and organisational indicators for the management and optimal care of adults with acute ischaemic stroke. DATA EXTRACTION AND SYNTHESIS: After duplicate removal, all publications were checked for title and abstract. The full text of articles meeting the inclusion criteria was reviewed. Two independent reviewers performed 10% of the study selection and data extraction. Data collected underwent descriptive statistics.
resultsOf the 4343 references identified, 31 were included in the scoping review. About 360 indicators were identified and preliminary screened by two stroke experts. Fifty-four indicators were evaluated for validity, relevance and feasibility by a committee of experts including a partner patient using a Delphi method. A total of 34 indicators were selected and classified based on dimensions of care performance such as accessibility of services, quality of care and resource optimisation. Safety accounted for about one-third of the indicators, while there were few indicators for sustainability, equity of access and responsiveness.
conclusionThis scoping review shows there are many clinical and organisational indicators in the literature that are relevant, valid and feasible for improving the quality of care in the acute phase of ischaemic stroke. Future research is essential to highlight clinical and organisational practices in the acute phase. REGISTRATION DETAILS: https://osf.io/qc4mk/.
