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

The viability of using thrombus heterogeneity (TH) data derived from dual-energy CT (DECT) as a visual thrombotic biomarker is unclear. The first aim of this study is to develop a quantitative measure of TH on DECT and test its performance for predicting the stroke source (cardiogenic vs. non-cardiogenic) and clinical outcomes (functional status assessed by the modified Rankin Scale score at 90 days) following machine thrombectomy (MT). The second aim is to associate thrombus subregions with the thrombus composition to facilitate visualization of thrombus constituents. Radiomics data are extracted from the whole thrombus and subregions in CT/DECT to construct predictive models. The performances of all models are evaluated and compared in the validation and comparative cohorts. Histopathologic analysis is performed to correlate the subregion data with the actual thrombus composition. This study included 221 and 255 participants who underwent DECT and CT examinations, respectively. DECT outperformed CT in predicting stroke source and clinical outcomes, with the TH-related models showing the highest performance in the validation and comparative cohorts. Thrombus composition is correlated with the different CT/DECT-based subregions, with DECT-habitat_c showing the strongest association. Thrombus subregion analyses may help visualize the related constituents.
