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: Functional status after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) may improve after discharge, but paired assessments at discharge and long-term follow-up have rarely been used to distinguish delayed recovery from persistent disability. We characterized discharge-to-12-month recovery patterns after endovascular treatment and identified factors associated with persistent disability among patients with poor functional status at discharge. Methods: This multicenter retrospective cohort study consecutively enrolled patients with aSAH who underwent endovascular treatment between April 2021 and April 2024 and had available mRS data at discharge and 12-month follow-up. Demographic characteristics, medical history, aneurysm-related features, laboratory parameters, clinical severity, and perioperative data were collected. Based on mRS scores at discharge and 12 months, patients were classified as persistently favorable, delayed recovery, or persistently poor. Among patients with poor functional status at discharge, univariable and multivariable logistic regression analyses were performed to identify factors associated with persistent functional disability. Results: Among 1,637 patients, 1,328 (81.1%) were persistently favorable. Of 309 patients with poor functional status at discharge, 116 (37.5%) recovered functional independence by 12 months and 193 (62.5%) remained disabled. In the fully adjusted model, monocyte count (OR = 1.02, 95% CI: 1.00-1.04), modified World Federation of Neurosurgical Societies (mWFNS) grade (OR = 1.67, 95% CI: 1.29-2.18), and external ventricular drainage (EVD; OR = 3.71, 95% CI: 1.47-10.49) were associated with higher odds of persistent disability, whereas the systemic inflammation response index was associated with lower odds (OR = 0.99, 95% CI: 0.98-1.00). Conclusion: Substantial heterogeneity exists in post-discharge functional recovery after endovascular treatment for aSAH. Clinical severity, external ventricular drainage, and inflammation-related indicators were associated with persistent disability. Recovery patterns based on mRS trajectories may support post-discharge risk stratification and rehabilitation follow-up.
