Tenecteplase in acute ischemic stroke: a new era in thrombolysis.
Review in Arquivos de neuro-psiquiatria, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Tenecteplase (TNK) is a genetically engineered variant of alteplase, showing promise for acute ischemic stroke treatment. With a longer half-life and higher fibrin specificity, TNK enables more targeted and efficient clot dissolution. Clinical trials demonstrate potential advantages, including improved reperfusion rates and functional outcomes with lower systemic bleeding. Though not officially approved for this purpose by all regulatory agencies, TNK is used off-label and in acute stroke guidelines due to its ease of administration and effectiveness. The 0.25 mg/kg dosage within 4.5 hours of symptom onset was shown to be consistently effective and safe. Further trials are expected to identify patient subgroups that benefit most from TNK treatment. The present narrative review assesses the existing literature and evidence regarding the use of tenecteplase for the treatment of acute ischemic stroke.
