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

The objective was to quantify the effect of endovascular therapy (EVT) results of large-vessel occlusion (LVO) on brain tissue hydration, assessed by net water uptake (NWU). MATERIALS AND

methodsNinety-three patients with EVT of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) due to acute LVO (men-44, women-49, median age 68.7) were included in this retrospective, non-randomized, single-center study. EVT was performed under general anesthesia with approved devices, including a stent retriever and aspiration catheters. Net water uptake (NWU) in ischemic zones was evaluated using non-contrasted computed tomography (CT). NWU was calculated using the well-known formula in the symmetrical zone of the brain, in admission and follow-up non-contrasted CT scans, 24 h after EVT.

resultsFifty-seven patients had successful arterial recanalization (Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction scale [TICI] 2b-3), while 36 patients had persistent or recurrent acute LVO (TICI 0-2a). The NWU median at admission was 3.4% in patients with successful EVT and 5.1% in patients with unsuccessful EVT (p < 0.05). The follow-up NWU median was 7.2% after successful EVT and 12.8% in patients with persistent/recurrent acute LVO (p < 0.001).

conclusionSuccessful arterial recanalization at AIS due to LVO (TICI 2b -3) led to a significant reduction in brain edema progression in cerebral ischemic foci.
