FLAIR vascular hyperintensity is associated with functional outcome in patients with ischemic stroke receiving endovascular treatment: a meta-analysis.

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: Fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) vascular hyperintensity (FVH) might be useful for predicting and functional outcome in ischemic stroke patients after endovascular thrombectomy (EVT), but its clinical benefit remains controversial. Thus, this study aimed to evaluate the association of FVH on prognosis in ischemic stroke patients who received EVT. Methods: PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, and Wanfang databases were searched for potentially eligible studies published up to March 2024. Pooled standard mean difference (SMD), risk ratios (RR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) were employed to assess the association of FVH on prognosis in ischemic stroke patients who received EVT. All statistical analyses were conducted using STATA 12.0 software. Results: A total of 10 studies were included in our study. The results indicated that higher FVH score were associated with better prognosis (SMD: 0.80, 95% CI 0.63-0.97). Moreover, the presence of FVH was significant associated with better functional outcome in ischemic stroke patients who received EVT (RR: 0.68, 95% CI, 0.58-0.79). Conclusion: The current meta-analysis suggests that FVH is related the prognosis of ischemic stroke patients after EVT.
