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
backgroundThe treatment of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) aims to achieve early vascular recanalization and reperfusion of the penumbra. However, the effect of early penumbral imaging within 6 h on clinical outcomes remains unclear. The objective of this study was to determine the effect of magnetic resonance-guided (MR-guided) perfusion imaging within 6 h after symptom onset on endovascular thrombectomy outcomes in AIS patients.
methodsWe prospectively collected the clinical information of consecutive AIS patients undergoing endovascular thrombectomy based on MR-guided perfusion imaging within 6 h after symptom onset from AISRNA and EVTRNA studies. The primary outcome was defined as the poor outcome (mRS > 2 within 90 days). The perfusion-weighted imaging/diffusion-weighted imaging (PWI/DWI) mismatch was assessed by an automated software.
resultsWe enrolled 84 patients (25 in the mismatch ≤ 1.8 group and 59 in the mismatch > 1.8 group). Significant difference was found between the mismatch > 1.8 group and the mismatch ≤ 1.8 group for the incidence of disabling stroke (mRS > 2) within 90 days (40.7% vs. 68.0%, OR: 3.099, 95% CI: 1.154-8.323, P = 0.025). Intracranial hemorrhage occurred in 8 patients (13.6%) in the mismatch > 1.8 group and 10 patients in the mismatch ≤ 1.8 group (40.0%) (P = 0.010). The risk of severe cerebral edema was 2/59 (3.4%) vs. 7/25 (28.0%) (P = 0.004). These findings remained stable after adjustment.
conclusionsMR-guided perfusion imaging mismatch profiles within 6 h after symptom onset may be feasible to predictclinical outcomes and reduce clinically ineffective reperfusion after endovascular thrombectomy.
