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: Mechanical thrombectomy (MT), when combined with intravenous thrombolysis (IVT), has emerged as an effective therapeutic strategy for acute ischemic stroke (AIS). Edaravone Dexborneol, a novel fixed-dose combination of edaravone (30 mg) and dexborneol (7.5 mg) with dual free radical scavenger, has also demonstrated neuroprotective benefits in AIS management. This study aims to investigate the potential effects of Edaravone Dexborneol in patients with AIS who have undergone MT and IVT. Methods: This single-center retrospective cohort study enrolled 207 patients with AIS who received both IVT and MT between January 2019 and June 2024. Based on whether they received Edaravone Dexborneol treatment, patients were categorized into the Edaravone Dexborneol group and the control group. Baseline characteristics, inflammatory biomarkers, functional outcomes, mortality, and safety endpoints were compared. Results: Compared to the control group, the Edaravone Dexborneol group showed significantly lower levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α) and higher levels of anti-inflammatory cytokines (IL-10, IL-35, TGF-β) at Days 3, 7, and 14 (all Conclusion: Patients treated with Edaravone Dexborneol were associated with better functional outcomes three months after stroke onset compared to those who did not receive the treatment. These findings may be related to the drug's anti-inflammatory properties; however, randomized controlled trials are needed to confirm efficacy in patients undergoing MT combined with IVT.
