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
introductionIntracranial atherosclerosis is the main cause of stroke globally, with acute large vessel occlusive (LVO) stroke being a predominant contributor to stroke-related mortality. In recent years, aspiration thrombectomy (AT) has emerged as a novel therapeutic method for treating acute LVO stroke. The purpose of this study aims to investigate the safety and efficacy of AT alone or combined with stent retriever thrombectomy (SRT) in the treatment of acute LVO stroke METHODS AND ANALYSIS: This is a multicentre and observational real-world study involving patients diagnosed with acute LVO stroke. Participants will be treated with AT alone or combined with SRT. According to the actual annual number of embolectomy in the sub-centre and the research years, the sample size of this study is estimated to be 400 patients, of which 300 patients of anterior circulation lesions and 100 patients of posterior circulation lesions are planned to be recruited, being considered that the incidence of posterior circulation is about 20-25%. Clinical data, including baseline characteristics, intraoperative details, postoperative outcomes and follow-up results, will be systematically collected using an Electronic Data Capture system over a follow-up period of 3 months. The primary efficacy endpoint is the rate of excellent functional outcome (modified Rankin Scale score range 0-3) after 90 days, and the successful recanalisation confirmed by digital subtraction angiography. The primary safety outcome is symptomatic intracranial haemorrhage within 48 hours (National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score increase ≥4). This study will provide us with powerful guidance for the treatment of acute LVO stroke with different aetiologies. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: This study protocol was approved by the Ethics Committee on Human Experimentation at Shandong Provincial Hospital Affiliated to Shandong First Medical University (approval number: SWYX:2022-1025). All the participating sites have received the ethics approval. The outcomes will be disseminated through national and international presentations and peer-reviewed publications. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: ChiCTR2200065172.
