Early Phase Thrombolysis and Functional Outcome for Acute Ischemic Stroke Treated with Endovascular Thrombectomy After Intravenous Thrombolysis.

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
Background: The efficacy of intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) in treating acute ischemic stroke (AIS) has shown a rapid decline with time; however, the impact of this trend on IVT prior to endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) remains uncertain. Methods: This study retrospectively analyzed patients from multicenter trials who received EVT after IVT in the anterior circulation. The endpoints included unfavorable outcomes (defined as a 90-day modified Rankin Scale score of 3-6) and hemorrhagic complications. Patients were stratified into two groups based on onset-to-needle time (ONT), with a 2-hour threshold. ONT was defined as the interval from the first observed stroke symptoms (or the last known well state) to the initiation of IVT. Multivariate logistic regression and propensity score matching (PSM) were used to compare outcomes. Results: Among the 176 patients following PSM (with a median age of 67.5 years and 60.8% being female), the median ONT was 120 minutes (85 minutes vs 176 minutes in early and late phase group), with 88 patients in each group. Multivariate analysis revealed that late phase IVT (ONT > 2 hours) was significantly associated with unfavorable outcomes (odds ratio [OR] = 2.213; 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.078-4.646; Conclusion: Early phase IVT (ONT ≤ 2 hours) before EVT was linked to reduced unfavorable outcomes for AIS. No significant differences were observed among predefined subgroups.
