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 purposeThe optimal thrombectomy technique in emergent large vessel occlusion due to cancer-associated coagulopathy remains uncertain. We aimed to investigate the efficacy and safety of concurrent contact aspiration and stent retriever in this stroke subtype.

methodsWe retrospectively analyzed consecutive ischemic stroke patients who had undergone endovascular thrombectomy. Patients were characterized as having cancer-associated stroke (CAS) or non-cancer-associated stroke (non-CAS). Thrombectomy technique was classified as a single strategy (either contact aspiration or a stent retriever) or a combined technique (concurrent use of contact aspiration and a stent retriever at least once). Successful recanalization was defined as a modified TICI grade 2b or 3 at the end of the procedure. Factors associated with successful recanalization were analyzed.

resultsThe present study enrolled 393 patients. Of these patients, 56 (14.2%) were found to have cancer-associated stroke. Rates of recanalization (69.6% vs. 91.7%,

conclusionsThe combined technique was associated with successful recanalization in patients with cancer-associated stroke and emergent large vessel occlusion.
