Internal Carotid Artery Occlusion: Pathophysiology, Diagnosis, and Management.
Review in Current atherosclerosis reports, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 27 papers, 3 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
purpose of reviewAcute internal carotid artery occlusion (ICAO) is associated with large infarcts and poor clinical outcomes and contributes to morbidity and mortality worldwide. In this review, we discuss various etiologies and pathophysiology of clinical presentations of ICAO, different radiographic patterns, and management of patients with ICAO. RECENT
findingsRecanalization rates remain suboptimal with systemic thrombolysis amongst patients with acute ICAO. Recent success of endovascular therapy for vessel occlusion in anterior circulation has expanded the horizons; however, few patients with cervical dissections and ICAO were included in these landmark trials. Acute ICAO responds poorly to intravenous thrombolysis and portends worse clinical outcomes. Extracranial and intracranial ICAOs have varied clinical course and imaging patterns, with discrete cervical ICAO usually associated with better clinical outcomes while tandem occlusions predispose poor outcomes. Diagnostic catheter-based angiogram is often required since appearances of ICAO using non-invasive neuroimaging modalities are often deceiving. Repeated vascular imaging in acute to subacute phase to determine recanalization of ICAO is critical for secondary prevention. Recent success of endovascular procedures will continue to expand the horizons to improve the management of ICAO.
