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
backgroundMechanical thrombectomy is the most effective treatment for restoring reperfusion in large vessel occlusion acute ischaemic stroke, even in patients with posterior circulation. However, the strategy for optimal treatment of patients with acute basilar artery occlusion (BAO) in difficult-to-treat cases in which thrombectomy has failed is unknown.
aimsThe purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of rescue intracranial stenting (RIS) in patients with acute BAO treated with thrombectomy.
methodsStroke patients with acute BAO who had undergone failed mechanical thrombectomy in the ATTENTION registry were enrolled in this study. Univariable and multivariable regression analyses were performed to assess the clinical efficacy and safety of RIS.
resultsA total of 477 patients were included in the analysis, and 346 patients underwent RIS, of whom 167 (35.0%) patients had a favourable outcome. Symptomatic intracranial haemorrhage (sICH) occurred in 24 (5.0%) patients, and 172 (36.1%) patients died. There were no significant differences between the two groups of patients in the outcomes of modified Rankin Scale (mRS) 0-1 (p=0.541), mRS 0-2 (p=0.374), mRS 0-3 (p=0.600), or death (p=0.706). Patients in the RIS+ group had a significantly higher incidence of sICH (1.5% vs 6.4%; p=0.031). Nevertheless, after adjusting for confounders, RIS was not found to be an independent risk factor for sICH (adjusted odds ratio 4.189, 95% confidence interval: 0.960-18.286; p=0.057).
conclusionsIn this national, multicentre, prospective study, RIS in patients with acute BAO who had undergone failed first-line thrombectomy was feasible, but we could not show significance regarding improved long-term outcomes. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: ChiCTR2000041117.
