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 and purpose: Endovascular treatment (EVT) is a standard therapy for acute ischemic stroke (AIS) caused by large vessel occlusion (LVO). However, the performance of EVT in primary stroke centers (PSCs) in China remains uncertain. This study aims to explore the performance of EVT in PSCs and compare it with that in comprehensive stroke centers (CSCs). Methods: We conducted a prospective registry of EVT at 11 CSCs and 26 PSCs in China. AIS patients with intracranial LVO who received EVT were divided into two groups based on the type of stroke center. We compared the AIS workflow, EVT procedural details, radiological, and clinical outcomes between the two groups. Results: From November 2021 to December 2022, 1,196 patients were enrolled, and 847 were included in the analysis. Overall, 84.8% of patients achieved successful reperfusion, and 46.3% achieved good clinical outcomes. Compared with patients treated at CSCs, those treated at PSCs had shorter onset-to-presentation time (OPT: 152 min vs. 268 min, Conclusion: In China, successful reperfusion rates were lower and mortality rates were higher despite shorter onset-to-presentation times in primary stroke centers. Additionally, door-to-puncture times were prolonged despite limited use of advanced brain imaging. These findings highlight the need for EVT skill training and improvement in the AIS workflow in primary stroke centers to enhance patient outcomes.
