Left, Then Right Internal Carotid Artery Dissection: A Case Report.
Article in Clinical practice and cases in emergency medicine, 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
introductionWe present a unique case of a patient who presented to the emergency department with stroke-like symptoms found to have a spontaneous, left-sided internal carotid artery dissection (ICAD). CASE REPORT: The patient was treated successfully with thrombectomy and subsequently developed contralateral symptoms caused by a right-sided ICAD. This was managed with a second contra-lateral thrombectomy. The patient's course was complicated by persistent and mild hypotension, postulated to be secondary to bilateral carotid baroreceptor trauma from the dissections.
conclusionThis case highlights the importance of close neurological monitoring for patients, preferably in a neurologic critical care setting, during and after invasive treatments such as systemic thrombolytic administration or mechanical thrombectomy. In this case, identifying the patient's subsequent development of contralateral symptoms in a timely fashion was key to his positive outcome. An additional factor that had a positive impact on this outcome was the use of artificial intelligence software, which assists in determining whether thrombectomy may be indicated prior to receiving a formal radiologist read on computed tomography angiography/perfusion studies. Artificial intelligence technology such as this has great potential to augment and expedite patient care.
