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

objectiveTo evaluate the effect of Tirofiban combined with endovascular treatment on hemorrhagic transformation (HT) and neurological function in patients with ischemic stroke.

methodsA retrospective analysis was performed on 94 patients with ischemic stroke treated at Xi'an International Medical Center Hospital from January 2020 to January 2023. Among them, 45 patients underwent endovascular treatment only and served as the control group. Another 49 patients received Tirofiban in addition to endovascular treatment and they formed the study group. The pre-treatment and 14-day post-treatment NIHSS scores were compared between the two groups. The 24-hour HT rate and the incidence of post-treatment adverse events were also compared between the two groups. Multivariate Cox regression analysis was used to identify factors influencing patient prognosis.

resultsThe NIHSS scores in the study group were significantly lower than those in the control group 14 days after treatment (P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the 24-hour HT rate between the two groups (P>0.05). In addition, there were no significant differences in the incidence of adverse events between the two groups (P>0.05). Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that treatment regimen, age, and time from onset to admission were independent factors affecting 90-day prognosis (P<0.01). A prognostic model based on β-coefficients was constructed: Cox risk = 2.729 * treatment regimen + 2.881 * age + 2.795 * time from onset to admission. The Cox risk was significantly lower in the good prognosis group compared to the poor prognosis group (P<0.0001), with an area under the curve of 0.925 in predicting patient prognosis.

conclusionsTirofiban combined with endovascular treatment can improve quality of life, neurological function, and short-term prognosis in patients with ischemic stroke without increasing the incidence of adverse effects and HT.
