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 and purposePatterns of the cerebral microcirculatory response with changes in the BBB and perfusion in patients with stroke and a large vessel occlusion are still unclear. We combined dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE) permeability and DSC perfusion MRI to detect such patterns beyond the borders of the diffusion-restricted infarct core after successful recanalization. MATERIALS AND

methodsCombined DCE permeability and DSC perfusion MRI were performed prospectively in patients within 24 hours after successful mechanical recanalization of acute MCA occlusion. Perfusion alterations were visually assessed on CBF and CBV maps; blood-brain barrier disruptions (BBBD), on

resultsThirty-eight patients were included in the study. Subtle hyperperfusion beyond the DWI lesion was present in 13/38 patients (34%) on CBF-maps; and elevated CBV, in 15/38 patients (39%). In these patients, the ratios between ipsi- and contralateral white matter CBF (

conclusionsCombined DCE permeability and DSC perfusion imaging is feasible in patients 24 hours after successful thrombectomy and reveals subtle hyperperfusion and BBBD occurring frequently beyond the diffusion-restricted infarct core.
