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

An 85-year-old female with situs inversus totalis presented with right hemiplegia, right facial nerve palsy, eye deviation to the left, and aphasia. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed acute ischemic lesions in the left insular cortex and the frontal lobe. Magnetic resonance angiography revealed an occlusion of the left internal carotid artery. Reversed-image mechanical thrombectomy achieved complete reperfusion in three passes within 54 minutes. Six months post-intervention, the patient could walk indoors independently. Our technique, which replicates the normal arterial anatomy by inversion and angulation, was adapted to situs inversus totalis.
