Artificial intelligence for microembolic signal detection by transcranial Doppler in ischemic stroke: a mini-review.
Review in Frontiers in neurology. 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
Microembolic signals (MES) detected by transcranial Doppler (TCD) provide real-time information on ongoing embolic activity in patients with ischemic stroke and transient ischemic attack. MES have been associated with stroke recurrence and high-risk conditions including large-artery atherosclerosis, atrial fibrillation, moyamoya disease, cancer-related stroke, and complex aortic arch plaques. Despite its clinical value, conventional TCD is limited by operator dependency, suboptimal acoustic windows, and limited ability to discriminate embolus characteristics. Recent advances in artificial intelligence (AI), including machine learning algorithms and robotic-assisted TCD systems, offer automated and reproducible MES detection, improved artifact rejection, and advanced signal interpretation. This mini-review summarizes the clinical relevance of MES, the main limitations of conventional TCD, and current and emerging applications of AI to MES detection, highlighting future perspectives for stroke risk stratification and personalized secondary prevention.
