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

Background: Mechanisms underlying delayed neurological improvement (DNI) after endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) in patients with anterior (ACS) and posterior circulation stroke (PCS) may differ. This study aims to compare the factors associated with DNI in patients with ACS and PCS. Materials and methods: Data of patients who underwent EVT with National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score more than 6 and achieved successful reperfusion were retrospectively analyzed. DNI was defined as achieving favorable functional outcomes at 90 days, even without early neurological improvement. The factors associated with DNI in patients with ACS and PCS were investigated. Results: A total of 241 patients were included. The proportions of DNI (30.8% vs. 20.0%; Conclusion: The proportions of DNI were similar in patients with ACS and PCS. However, the factors associated with DNI were different between the two groups.
