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

backgroundEndovascular treatment (EVT) is effective for large vessel occlusion (LVO) stroke with smaller volumes of CT perfusion (CTP)-defined core. However, the influence of perfusion imaging during thrombectomy on the functional outcomes of patients with large ischemic core (LIC) stroke at both early and late time windows is uncertain in real-world practice.

methodA retrospective analysis was performed on 99 patients who underwent computed tomography angiography (CTA) and CT perfusion (CTP)-Rapid Processing of Perfusion and Diffusion (RAPID) before EVT and had a baseline ischemic core ≥ 50 mL and/or Alberta Stroke Program Early CT Score (ASPECTS) score of 0-5. The primary outcome was the three-month modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score. Data were analyzed by binary logistic regression and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves.

resultsA fair outcome (mRS, 0-3) was found in 34 of the 99 patients while 65 had a poor prognosis (mRS, 4-6). The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that onset-to-reperfusion (OTR) time (odds ratio [OR], 1.004; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.001-1.007; p = 0.008), ischemic core (OR, 1.066; 95% CI, 1.024-1.111; p = 0.008), and the hypoperfusion intensity ratio (HIR) (OR, 70.898; 95% CI, 1.130-4450.152; p = 0.044) were independent predictors of outcome. The combined results of ischemic core, HIR, and OTR time showed good performance with an area under the ROC curve (AUC) of 0.937, significantly higher than the individual variables (p < 0.05) using DeLong's test.

conclusionsHigher HIR and longer OTR time in large core stroke patients were independently associated with unfavorable three-month outcomes after EVT.
