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

Transcarotid artery revascularization (TCAR) has emerged as a promising alternative to carotid endarterectomy as an intervention for high risk carotid artery stenosis patients. TCAR provides superior neuroprotection as compared with transfemoral carotid stenting, as well as similar outcomes to carotid endarterectomy. Plaque prolapse (PP) through the stent while rare poses a significant risk of ischemic complications during TCAR. The patient presented with a left internal carotid artery stenosis that was inaccessible surgically. During TCAR, angiography revealed PP through the stent. A second stent was deployed with excellent results. This case highlights TCAR's advantage in managing PP with flow reversal. TCAR's enhanced neuroprotection offers a valuable option for addressing this complication, providing benefits that may not be fully achieved with transfemoral carotid stenting.
