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
Background: Futile recanalization (FR) remains a significant challenge in patients with acute basilar artery occlusion (BAO) following successful endovascular treatment (EVT). This study aimed to investigate the predictive value of computed tomography perfusion (CTP)-based software (AutoMIStar; Apollo) for FR among BAO patients undergoing EVT. Methods: We analyzed a prospectively maintained database to identify consecutive BAO patients who achieved successful recanalization (modified Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction grade ≥ 2b) after EVT between January 2020 and September 2022. Clinical characteristics and imaging parameters from non-contrast CT, CT angiography, and CTP-AutoMIStar were collected for analysis. FR was defined as an unfavorable outcome (modified Rankin Scale score > 3) at 90 days despite successful recanalization. Multivariable stepwise logistic regression analysis was performed to identify independent predictors of FR. Results: Of the 54 patients included in this study, 24 (44.4%) experienced FR. In the univariate analysis, admission National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score, posterior circulation Acute Stroke Prognosis Early CT Score, Basilar Artery on Computed Tomography Angiography (BATMAN) score, hypoperfusion intensity ratio, and perfusion deficit volume in delay time (DT) > 4 s, DT > 6 s, DT > 8 s, and all cerebral blood flow (CBF) thresholds were associated with FR (all Conclusion: Perfusion deficit volume in CBF < 35% on CTP-AutoMIStar imaging maps and BATMAN score are independent predictors of FR after EVT in BAO patients. There is a significant positive correlation between perfusion deficit volume in CBF < 35% and the occurrence of FR.
