CT Perfusion Metrics as Indicators of Intracranial Atherosclerotic Stenosis in Acute Ischemic Stroke: A Clinical Analysis.
Article in Current neurovascular research, 2025. 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
backgroundIntracranial Atherosclerotic Stenosis (ICAS) is a prevalent etiology of acute ischemic stroke (AIS), leading to significant morbidity and mortality. The accurate diagnosis and treatment of ICAS-induced AIS are critical to improving outcomes. This study assesses the application of Computed Tomography Perfusion (CTP) in predicting ICAS in AIS patients and its potential impact on patient management.
methodsA retrospective analysis was conducted on 224 AIS patients who underwent endovascular therapy (EVT) at one single Chinese Stroke Center between April 2022 and December 2023. Clinical and radiological data were collected, including patients' demographics, CTP parameters, and 90-day modified Rankin Scale (mRS) scores. Logistic regression and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves evaluated the predictive power of CTP parameters for ICAS.
resultsCTP analysis revealed significant differences in perfusion parameters between ICASinduced AIS and other etiologies. ICAS patients had a smaller ischemic volume on admission and higher mismatch ratios [Time to Maximum, T
conclusionCTP is a valuable diagnostic tool for ICAS-induced AIS, offering the potential for early identification and informing the decision for endovascular treatment. The positive correlation between CTP findings and patient outcomes supports its utility in clinical practice.
