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

M1 fenestration of the middle cerebral artery is rare. We present two patterns of acute thromboembolic conditions in M1 fenestrations treated with mechanical thrombectomy. Case 1 was a male in his 60s presenting with right hemiparesis and aphasia. Angiography showed acute left M1 proximal occlusion; the first direct aspiration revealed two parallel routes, and the second aspiration achieved complete recanalization of the left M1 fenestration. Case 2 was a male in his 70s presenting right hemiparesis and aphasia. Angiography revealed a sudden stair-like narrowing of the left M1 in the intermediate part, and a retrograde blood flow cavity was observed on the upper side of the distal part. Mechanical thrombectomy was performed to diagnose the upper limb occlusion of the left M1 fenestration, and successful recanalization was achieved through direct aspiration. Anatomical variations, such as fenestration, should be considered to reduce complication risks.
