The Necessity of Using MRI as an Imaging Modality in Acute Code Stroke in Indonesia.

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
Purpose: To evaluate the performance and outcomes of the 6-minute magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) protocol in diagnosing stroke within Indonesian healthcare setting compared to computed tomography (CT). Patients and methods: This retrospective single-center study was conducted at the Universitas Indonesia Hospital in Depok, Indonesia from September 2021 to September 2023. Patients who were diagnosed with acute stroke underwent a clinical evaluation and a 6-minute MRI protocol. The primary objective was to assess the efficiency of the 6-minute MRI protocol in promptly and accurately evaluating acute stroke patients, including determining average MRI time, thrombolysis eligibility, and post-thrombolysis outcomes compared to CT imaging. Exclusions comprised those requiring resuscitation, lack of stroke code activation, or having incomplete documentation. Results: This study involved 182 stroke patients, 136 of which underwent MRI and 46 had CT scans. Thrombolysis eligibility was similar between the groups (48.9% for MRI vs 47.8% for CT-Scan), but a higher proportion of eligible MRI patients received thrombolysis (70.1% vs 54.5%, p = 0.037). MRI also achieved shorter door-to-imaging times, especially from February to June 2022. Among those treated for ischemic stroke via MRI, 70.3% showed improvement compared to 55% for CT (p=0.016). Door-to-MRI times varied across periods, averaging 88.2 minutes before national healthcare insurance collaboration, 29.1 minutes during transition, and 47.8 minutes afterward. Conclusion: This study emphasizes the crucial role of the 6-minute MRI protocol for accurately diagnosing stroke types, severity, and determining thrombolysis eligibility. Positive outcomes in thrombolysis patients using this protocol highlight its effectiveness. However, prolonged time-to-MRI indicates the need for further improvement. Optimizing time management and workflow efficiency are critical for improving treatment efficacy and safety.
