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

IntroductionMechanical thrombectomy (MT) techniques affect procedure lengths and radiation exposure, with both reduced with contact aspiration (CA) compared to combination stentriever-assisted aspiration (SA). Monopoint MT has higher first pass effect (FPE) rates, less technical crossover, and recanalization with fewer passes. Monopoint MT may thus be associated with shorter procedural times and less radiation.Materials/MethodsAnterior circulation large vessel MT cases across four centers were identified, assigning cases to Monopoint, CA, or SA groups based on the first-line technique employed, excluding cases that could not be assigned to one of these three groups. Clinical variables, technical details, times to first and final pass, fluoroscopy time, dose-area product (DAP), and radiation dose were recorded. Univariable and multivariable analyses were performed to compare procedural times and radiation data among treatment groups.ResultsSeventy-seven Monopoint, 32 CA, 42 SA cases were analyzed. Time to first pass was shortest with Monopoint (
