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: Hemorrhagic transformation (HT) is a common and severe complication after endovascular treatment (EVT), especially the symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage (sICH). This study aimed to explore the quantitative diagnostic value of multiphase computed tomography (CT) angiography (mCTA) in predicting HT and sICH in patients with anterior circulation acute ischemic stroke (AIS) after EVT. Methods: We retrospectively collected data of patients with anterior circulation AIS from Tianjin Huanhu Hospital from April 2020 to December 2023. We assessed the arterial collateral circulation (ACC), superficial venous drainage scores (SVS), and deep venous drainage scores (DVS) based on mCTA. SVS1, SVS2, and SVS3, as well as DVS1, DVS2, and DVS3, represented SVS and DVS in the arterial, venous, and late venous phases, respectively. Patients were divided into HT and non-HT groups based on the presence of an intracranial hemorrhage on a follow-up non-contrast CT. We conducted a subgroup analysis of HT patients, dividing them into sICH and asymptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage (aICH) subgroups. We analyzed and compared the clinical variables, ACC, SVS, and DVS in the non-HT and HT groups, as well as in the sICH and aICH subgroups. Multiparameter predictive models of HT and sICH were established using ACC (Model-HT1 and Model-sICH1), SVS and DVS (Model-HT2 and Model-sICH2), and comprehensive parameters (Model-HT3 and Model-sICH3). The performance of predictive models was evaluated and compared using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and the Delong test. Results: Finally, 127 patients were included, and 46 developed HT. The HT group had a higher ratio of poor ACC than the non-HT group (97.83% Conclusions: The ACC, SVS, and DVS based on mCTA were valuable for predicting the risk of HT and sICH after EVT, the combination of multiple parameters can improve the predictive efficacy.
