Mechanical Thrombectomy in Two Children Under the Age of One Year.
Article in Clinical case reports, 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
This case series examines mechanical thrombectomy (MT) with thromboaspiration in two infants under 1 year, a rarely performed procedure due to ethical challenges and limited data. Both cases involved thromboembolic complications during intra-arterial chemotherapy for retinoblastoma. An 11-month-old with left posterior inferior cerebellar artery occlusion and a 5-month-old with basilar artery occlusion underwent MT, achieving full recanalization (eTICI = 3) without infarction or hemorrhage. Postoperative imaging confirmed no complications, and both patients had normal neurological outcomes (pedNIHSS = 0). These cases highlight the feasibility and safety of MT in infants, demonstrating its potential to achieve excellent outcomes in high-risk situations. Further research is needed to establish standardized guidelines and expand MT's use in pediatric stroke management.
