Article in Neurosurgical review, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Surgical thrombectomy remains a feasible technique in an accurately selected patient population with large vessel occlusion, even though endovascular mechanical thrombectomy is the gold standard. It especially warrants consideration in cases where the endovascular approach is unfeasible or fails. The current extension in the therapeutic window of time in mechanical thrombectomy also provides opportunities to open thrombectomy. To support our view, we present a case of a patient who suffered an ischemic stroke. Intravenous thrombolysis proved ineffective and mechanical thrombectomy was impossible due to extreme tortuosity of the internal carotid artery. Therefore, surgical thrombectomy was performed. The patient underwent successful recovery and states a great satisfaction. To improve efficiency and outcomes, a properly organised and trained surgical team with plentiful neurovascular experience is necessary. Finally, open thrombectomy is the most effective approach to completely restore luminal patency compared to the endovascular approaches yet risks due to the operation should be taken into account.
