Time to Presentation Is Associated with Clinical Outcome in Hemispheric Stroke Patients Deemed Ineligible for Recanalization Therapy.

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
backgroundDelayed thrombolysis adversely impacts functional outcome after stroke. Therefore, great efforts are undertaken to reduce delay in patient presentation and initiate treatment as quickly as possible. However, little is known regarding the impact of time to presentation (TTP) on outcome in patients who are ineligible for acute stroke therapy. Thus, we sought to determine whether the TTP is associated with the 90-day outcome irrespective of eligibility for acute recanalization therapy.
methodsWe retrospectively analyzed 258 consecutive acute ischemic stroke patients evaluated between January 2013 and February 2014. Multivariable logistic regression was used to determine whether a greater TTP is independently associated with a poor 90-day outcome defined as a modified Rankin scale (mRS) score of 3-6.
resultsIn the unadjusted analyses, the TTP was inversely correlated with transfer from an acute facility (r = -.126, P = .043), cardioembolic stroke etiology (r = -.146, P = .019), and acute recanalization therapy (r = .-412, P < .001). Conversely, a longer TTP was correlated with a worse 90-day mRS score (r = .127, P = .045). After adjustment, the TTP (P = .019), age (P < .001), female sex (P = .001), National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score (P < .001), preadmission mRS score (P = .001), atrial fibrillation (P < .001), and infarct volume (P < .001) were independently associated with a poor 90-day outcome. Importantly, a longer TTP (odds ratio 1.016, 95% confidence interval 1.001-1.032, P = .036) remained independently associated with the 90-day outcome when we restricted the analyses to patients ineligible for acute intravenous and endovascular recanalization therapies.
conclusionsEach hour delay in the TTP decreased chances for good outcome by approximately 2% independent of patient eligibility for acute recanalization therapies.
