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: Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) is a rare, treatable cause of stroke. Even though CVST has an established medical treatment, 15% of patients remain refractory to treatment. These patients may be candidates for endovascular treatment (EVT), yet the selection of patients remains a challenge. The study aims to understand the profile and outcome of patients treated with EVT and the type of procedure associated with good outcomes. Methods: This is a single-center, retrospective analysis of CVST patients who underwent EVT from 2009 till 2022. Patients who received only medical management were excluded. Modified Rankin Scale (mRS) ≤2 at 3 months was taken as the primary outcome. Secondary outcomes assessed were hospital stay, death, recurrence, mRS ≤ 2 at discharge, and angiographic recanalization. Results: Fifty-two patients were included. Twenty-eight (53.8%) were males; the mean age was 33.3 ± 12.3 years. Headache ( Conclusion: EVT yielded good outcomes in carefully selected, medically refractory patients of CVST. IST performed well compared to other procedures.
