Predictors for vascular cognitive impairment in stroke patients.
Article in BMC neurology, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 23 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
backgroundAround two thirds stroke patients may suffer from vascular cognitive impairment (VCI). Our previous study has validated the NINDS-CSN harmonization standard for VCI diagnosis in Chinese. In this study, we aimed to investigate the predictors for VCI in Chinese post-stroke patients.
methodsWe compared epidemiological, clinical, and neuroimaging data (number, size and location of acute infarcts and lacunes, severities of white matter hyperintensities and brain atrophy) between stroke patients with and without VCI. Univariate and logistic regression analyses were utilized to determine VCI predictors.
resultsFifty-six consecutive patients (age, 63.8 ± 8.3 years; female, 37.5%) were recruited at a mean interval of 7.1 months after stroke onset, and 31 (55.4%) patients were diagnosed with VCI based on a validated 60-min neuropsychological battery. VCI patients were older (p = 0.023), less educated (p = 0.001), more likely to be female (p < 0.001), had a recurrent stroke (p = 0.028), and described higher apathy (p = 0.022) and worse pre-stroke cognition (p = 0.048) than cognitively normal patients. Lower educational level (adjusted odds ratio [OR] 0.750, 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.573-0.981; p = 0.035), female sex (adjusted OR 8.288, 95% CI, 1.522-45.113; p = 0.014), recurrent stroke (adjusted OR 11.327, 95% CI, 1.335-96.130, p = 0.026), and global cortical atrophy (adjusted OR 5.730, 95% CI, 1.128-29.101, p = 0.035) were independently associated with VCI in post-stroke patients.
conclusionsLower education, female sex, recurrent stroke and global cortical atrophy were associated with VCI in Chinese stroke patients.
