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

Epidemiological and benchmarking parameters of patients with ischemic stroke were collected in the Austrian Stroke Unit Registry from January 2003 till February 2007. 13,440 patient-data were analysed. 9509 were under 80 years old, 3931 were older than 80. Old patients showed worse clinical symptoms upon admission (NIHSS 9 vs. 6) and doubled mortality by worse pre-morbid status (mRS 1.27 vs. 0.47) in comparison to younger ones. Numerous other parameters were tested and compared in both groups of patients.
