A door-to-door survey of intracranial atherosclerosis in Liangbei County, China.
Article in Neurology, 2007. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06902740 (PCSK9 Inhibitor With Statin Therapy for Asymptomatic Intracranial Atherosclerosis), which is not on this map. Cited by 47 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.

Abstract
We studied 590 asymptomatic villagers aged > or =40 years in Liangbei County in central rural China and found 41 subjects (prevalence 6.9%) with intracranial atherosclerosis. In a multivariate analysis, the significant risk factors for intracranial stenosis were hypertension (OR 2.53; 95% CI 1.12 to 5.72), glycosuria (OR 3; 1.19 to 7.97), heart disease (OR 4; 1.39 to 11.6), and family history of stroke (OR 5.2; 1.38 to 20). Intracranial atherosclerosis is not uncommon among asymptomatic Chinese subjects.
