Influence of impaired renal function on the outcomes of patients with acute ischaemic stroke treated with intravenous tenecteplase and alteplase: a post hoc analysis of the TRACE-2 trial.
Trial report in Stroke and vascular neurology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT04797013 (A Phase 3, Multicentre,Open-label, Randomised Controlled, Non-inferiority Trial), which is not on this map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.

Abstract
objectiveLimited evidence is available regarding the risk-benefit ratio of thrombolytic therapy in patients with stroke and renal impairment complications, particularly for the drug tenecteplase. Therefore, we examined the association of impaired renal function with the safety and efficacy of intravenous thrombolytic treatment (IVT) in patients with acute ischaemic stroke (AIS).
methodsA post hoc analysis of a randomised controlled trial (ClinicalTrials gov. NCT04797013) was conducted. Participants who received IVT with tenecteplase and alteplase (0.25 and 0.9 mg/kg, respectively) within 4.5 hours of symptoms onset were categorised based on their estimated glomerular filtration rate as follows: (1) ≥90 mL/min/1.73 m
resultsIn intravenous tenecteplase-treated patients, mildly decreased renal function (OR 3.10; 95% CI: 1.41 to 6.78) and moderately to severely decreased renal function (OR: 8.03; 95% CI: 2.76 to 23.38) showed an association with a higher risk of all-cause mortality but not with sICH incidence compared with normal renal function. Among patients administered intravenous alteplase, those with a moderate-to-severe decrease in renal function exhibited an elevated risk of sICH (adjusted OR: 10.01; 95% CI: 1.61 to 62.15) and all-cause mortality (adjusted OR: 4.54; 95% CI: 1.48 to 13.91). Comparative treatment effects between tenecteplase and alteplase according to renal function grades showed no heterogeneity.
conclusionsA significant correlation was noted between kidney dysfunction and unfavourable outcomes in individuals with AIS who received treatment with either tenecteplase or alteplase.
