Impact of Prestroke Antiplatelet Therapy on the Efficacy of Intravenous Tirofiban at Preventing Early Neurological Deterioration: A Prespecified Subgroup Analysis of the TREND Trial.
Trial report in American journal of cardiovascular drugs : drugs, devices, and other interventions, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT04491695 (Safety and Efficacy of Tirofiban in Preventing Neurological Deterioration of Patients With Acute Ischemic Stroke), which is not on this map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.

Abstract
backgroundEarly neurological deterioration (END) in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) is a common phenomenon strongly associated with unfavorable outcomes. The TREND trial (NCT04491695) demonstrates the efficacy of intravenous tirofiban compared to oral aspirin in preventing END.
aimsThe purpose of this study was to explore whether prior antiplatelet therapy (APT) affected the therapeutic effects of tirofiban.
methodsThis prespecified post hoc analysis of the TREND trial stratified patients by prior antiplatelet use. The primary outcome was END
resultsOverall, 425 patients with AIS were analyzed, including 143 (33.6%) and 282 (66.4%) with and without prior APT, respectively. In patients without prior APT, tirofiban significantly reduced the risk of END
conclusionsIntravenous tirofiban significantly reduced the risk of END compared with aspirin in patients with AIS who were not on prestroke APT. Although this benefit was attenuated in pretreated patients, tirofiban might maintain a consistent efficacy and safety profile irrespective of prior antiplatelet use.
