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

objectivesFavorable arterial collaterals are correlated to favorable outcomes after endovascular thrombectomy (EVT), but many patients still have unfavorable outcomes despite favorable collaterals and successful reperfusion. We determined factors associated with favorable outcome in patients with good collaterals who had successful EVT. MATERIALS AND

methodsIn a post hoc analysis of the prospective CRISP 2 study, we identified patients with good collaterals (Tan≥2) and successful reperfusion (TICI 2b-3). Favorable (mRS 0-2) and unfavorable outcome (mRS 3-6) groups were compared to identify clinical, imaging, and treatment predictors of favorable outcome.

results92 patients were included. 33.7 % had favorable outcomes. There were no differences in sex (52 % females versus 54 % females; p = 0.821) or age (71 years [IQR 56-79] versus 68 years [IQR 57-79]; p = 0.859) in favorable versus unfavorable groups, respectively. Favorable outcome patients had more frequent intravenous thrombolysis (52 % versus 23 %; p = 0.006), shorter EVT procedures (27 min [IQR 23-40] versus 46 min ([IQR 27-64], and lower baseline NIHSS (12 [IQR 9-15] versus 16 [IQR 12-20]; p = 0.006). There were no differences in the frequency of TICI 3 rates (48 % vs. 38 %; p = 0.325) or first pass effect between the two groups (61 % vs. 57 %; p = 0.719). In a multivariable regression analysis, pre-stroke mRS 1 versus 0 versus (OR 0.15 [95 % CI: 0.03-0.78]; p = 0.024), pre-stroke mRS ≥3 versus 0 (OR 0.04 [95 % CI: 0.002-0.94]; p = 0.046), intravenous thrombolysis administration (OR 3.27 [95 % CI: 1.04-10.33]; p = 0.043) and EVT procedure time (OR for every 5 min 0.98 [95 % CI: 0.81-0.98]; p = 0.022) were modifiable predictors of favorable outcomes.

conclusionsAmong patients with good collaterals and successful reperfusion following EVT, favorable outcomes were associated with lower baseline mRS, intravenous thrombolysis administration, and shorter EVT procedure times.
