Surgical Exploration and Endarterectomy for Symptomatic Carotid Web With Retained Thrombus.
Article in Stroke (Hoboken, N.J.), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the 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.
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: Symptomatic carotid web with retained thrombus represents a potential source of embolic strokes. However, the absence of diagnostic guidelines contributes to heterogeneity in management recommendations. Methods: We present a patient with a right middle cerebral artery stroke attributable to carotid web with retained thrombus. Confirmation was obtained through surgical exploration, given the inconclusive imaging but strong index of suspicion. Results: The presence of carotid web with retained thrombus was confirmed through surgical exploration. Cervical endarterectomy was performed and a carotid web with an associated thrombus was successfully resected. Conclusion: We highlight the importance of having a high index of suspicion and prompt treatment to mitigate the risk of recurrent strokes when suspecting carotid web with retained thrombus.
