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

Hyperglycemia is a common complication after ischemic stroke, but its link to worse outcome is not well understood. We hypothesized that hyperglycemia may reflect an impaired metabolic response that is associated with worse cytotoxic brain injury. We performed retrospective analysis of magnetic resonance imaging from a cohort of acute ischemic stroke patients prospectively collected from 2006 to 2010 with baseline demographic and laboratory data as well as three-month outcomes. The severity of cytotoxic injury was quantified in vivo using apparent diffusion coefficient imaging by measuring the signal intensity within the stroke relative to the normal signal intensity of the contralateral hemisphere. Both hyperglycemia and lower apparent diffusion coefficient signal were associated with worse outcome after ischemic stroke (OR 0.239, p = 0.017; OR 1.11, p < 0.0001, respectively). Hyperglycemia was also associated with lower apparent diffusion coefficient (r = -0.32, p < 0.001). In multivariate analysis, apparent diffusion coefficient but not hyperglycemia was associated with outcome, suggesting that cytotoxicity may mediate the effect of hyperglycemia. For interventions designed to target hyperglycemia in acute ischemic stroke, a concomitant effect on the evolution of apparent diffusion coefficient may provide insight into whether hyperglycemia leads to or reflects worse cytotoxic injury.
