Transcatheter thrombolysis in children with Takayasu's arteritis complicated by acute cerebral infarction: a case report.
Article in American journal of translational research, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundTakayasu arteritis (TA), a rare systemic macrovasculitis in children, affects multiple arteries, causing necrosis, remodeling, stenosis, or dilatation. Due to nonspecific symptoms, early diagnosis is challenging, and it is often missed until organ dysfunction occurs. TA poses a significant health threat, with few reports on acute cerebral infarction in pediatric cases. CASE PRESENTATION: An 11-year-old girl presented with TA-induced thrombosis in the right middle cerebral artery's upper trunk. Despite prompt thrombolysis restoring blood flow, brain tissue necrosis and dysfunction persisted. Pre-intervention MRA showed occlusion and stenosis in relevant arteries. Subsequent angiography confirmed multiple-artery acute stroke, supported by imaging, serology, and cerebrospinal fluid tests. Timely rehabilitation, hormone treatment, and early diagnosis led to a favorable outcome.
conclusionsEarly diagnosis and treatment of pediatric TA are crucial to prevent organ damage. Transcatheter thrombolysis effectively restores brain perfusion in acute infarction cases.
