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

While tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI)-associated cerebral vascular stenosis (CVS) exhibit distinct mechanisms compared to conventional stroke in basic research, the clinical strategy remains nearly the same other than TKI-switching. We present the case of a 22-year-old female with chronic myeloid leukemia without stroke risk factors, who developed ponatinib-associated CVS. Three potential characteristics of TKI-associated CVS were identified: a heightened threshold for infarction, an atypical infarct area, and vascular recoverability. Specifically, brain computed tomography remained normal despite 20 h of severe hemiplegia. The ischemic distribution was confined in gray matter and the anterior cerebral artery territory on magnetic resonance imaging, despite severe stenosis of the internal carotid artery. Ischemic changes resolved within 10 days and arterial stenosis improved after ponatinib withdrawal. These unique features, distinct from typical stroke, could lead to misdiagnosis as non-organic neurological disorders or other conditions in ponatinib-treated patients.
