Acute ischemic stroke during cardiac catheterization: a rare case report in Malaysia.
Article in The Pan African medical journal, 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
Acute stroke occurring during cardiac catheterization is an extremely uncommon procedural complication. There is a significant research gap in the published literature regarding the occurrence of acute ischemic stroke during percutaneous coronary intervention in Asian populations, with most data originating from western countries, underscoring the need for localized studies to develop tailored detection and management strategies. We present the case of a 70-year-old Indian woman with multiple cardiovascular risk factors who experienced an acute ischemic stroke while undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention in Malaysia. We hypothesized that the clinically relevant cerebral infarction might have originated from large plaques located along the aortic arch. Catheterization-related strokes caused by embolization of fresh thrombi forming at the catheter or guidewire tips should be thrombolysed. Choosing the transradial approach reduces stroke risk but requires careful use of appropriately sized instruments and meticulous handling of guidewires to ensure patient safety.
