Endovascular recanalization of symptomatic chronic cerebral artery occlusion: predictors for successful recanalization and perioperative complications.
Article in Frontiers in neurology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Background and purpose: Endovascular recanalization and stenting has been used to treat patients with symptomatic chronic cerebral artery occlusion, including intracranial vertebrobasilar artery occlusion and internal carotid artery occlusion. Our challenge is to improve success rates and reduce the incidence of postoperative complications. This study sought to identify potential predictors for successful recanalization. Methods: Our study included 103 consecutive patients between February 2021 and October 2024 with symptomatic chronic cerebral artery occlusion who were treated with endovascular recanalization. We recorded clinical information, laboratory and examination results, radiologic characteristics and procedural results of patients. Factors affecting surgical outcomes were analyzed by univariate and multivariate analyses. Results: A total of 103 consecutive CCAO recanalization attempts were performed from February 2021 to October 2024 in 103 patients (78 men; age 61.1 ± 11.1 years; range: 32-81 years) with overall technical success rate 68.9%. Patients had chronic comorbidities such as hypertension (78, 75.7%), diabetes mellitus (32, 31.10%), and cardiac disease (12, 11.7%). 38 (36.9%) had a history of smoking, and 23 (22.3%) had a history of drinking. The rate of overall intraoperative complication was 10.7% (11/103). Multivariate analysis showed that stump morphology, smoking history, duration from last neurologic event (longer than 6 months or not), age, NLR were significantly associated with successful recanalization. According to the coefficients of the prediction model, the technical success rates were 100, 66.7 and 11.1% in patients with ≤6, 6-10, ≥10 points, respectively. Conclusion: The morphology of occluded stumps, duration from last neurologic event, age, smoking history and NLR can be used to predict the outcome of vascular recanalization.
