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

Objective: To establish and validate a model based on hyperdense middle cerebral artery sign (HMCAS) radiomics features for predicting hemorrhagic transformation (HT) in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) after endovascular treatment (EVT). Methods: Patients with AIS who presented with HMCAS on non-contrast computed tomography (NCCT) at admission and underwent EVT at three comprehensive hospitals between June 2020 and January 2024 were recruited for this retrospective study. A radiomics model was constructed using the HMCAS radiomics features most strongly associated with HT. In addition, clinical and radiological independent factors associated with HT were identified. Subsequently, a combined model incorporating radiomics features and independent risk factors was developed via multivariate logistic regression and presented as a nomogram. The models were evaluated via receiver operating characteristic curve, calibration curve, and decision curve analysis. Results: Of the 118 patients, 71 (60.17%) developed HT. The area under the curve (AUC) of the radiomics model was 0.873 (95% CI 0.797-0.935) in the training cohort and 0.851 (95%CI 0.721-0.942) in the test cohort. The Alberta Stroke Program Early CT score (ASPECTS) was the only independent predictor among 24 clinical and 4 radiological variables. The combined model further improved the predictive performance, with an AUC of 0.911 (95%CI 0.850-0.960) in the training cohort and 0.877 (95%CI 0.753-0.960) in the test cohort. Decision curve analysis demonstrated that the combined model had greater clinical utility for predicting HT. Conclusion: HMCAS-based radiomics is expected to be a reliable tool for predicting HT risk stratification in AIS patients after EVT.
