Implementing Evidence-Based Practices for Acute Stroke Care in Low- and Middle-Income Countries.
Review in Current atherosclerosis reports, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
purpose of reviewMost strokes occur in low- and middle-income countries where resources to manage patients are limited. We explore the resources required to providing optimal acute stroke care and review barriers to implementing evidence-based stroke care in settings with limited resources using the World Stroke Organization's Global Stroke Services Action Plan framework. RECENT
findingsMajor advances have been made during the past few decades in stroke prevention, treatment, and rehabilitation. These advances have been translated into practice in many high-income countries, but their uptake remains suboptimal in low- and middle-income countries. The review highlights the resources required to providing optimal acute stroke care in settings with limited resources. These resource levels were divided into minimal, essential, and advanced resources depending on the availability of stroke expertise, diagnostics, and facilities. Resources were described for the three stages of acute care: early diagnosis and management, acute management and prevention of complications, and early discharge and rehabilitation. Barriers to providing acute care at each of these stages in low- and middle-income countries are reviewed, explaining that some barriers persist in essential or advanced settings where some aspects of organized stroke units are available.
