Subarachnoid contrast staining not attributable to endovascular therapy.
Article in Emergency radiology, 2026. 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
Contrast staining within the brain refers to the leakage of iodinated contrast material through a disrupted blood-brain barrier, often in the setting of ischemia and endovascular intervention, which can mimic hemorrhage. While commonly seen within the parenchyma, it can be seen in the subarachnoid space especially after endovascular intervention. In the absence of endovascular intervention, subarachnoid hyperdensities on CT are typically presumed to be hemorrhage. However, in rare causes of trauma and stroke, subarachnoid contrast staining can be seen even in the absence of intervention. In this pictorial review, we present cases of patients with subarachnoid hyperdensities on CT which were subsequently confirmed to represent subarachnoid contrast staining. Awareness of this rare phenomenon is important for radiologists, particularly in the emergency setting, as it can have important clinical management and follow-up implications.
