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

introductionLimited studies have evaluated risk of stroke associated with the use of NSAIDs in patients with end-stage kidney disease. We examined the adverse effects of selective and nonselective NSAID use on the risk of stroke in dialysis patients.

methodsA case-crossover study was conducted using medical claims data from the National Health Insurance Research Database in Taiwan. We identified patients with ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke (defined as

resultsA total of 1190 dialysis patients with stroke were identified from 2003 to 2012. The results indicate a 1.31-fold increased risk of stroke related to NSAID use during the 30 days prior to a stroke (AOR = 1.31; 95% CI: 1.03-1.66); likewise, an excessive risk of ischemic stroke was observed (AOR = 1.34; 95% CI: 1.02-1.77). When classifying NSAIDs into selective and nonselective groups, nonselective NSAID use was significantly associated with an increased risk of stroke (AOR = 1.27; 95% CI: 1.00-1.61). DISCUSSION: In summary, the results show supportive evidence that NSAID use increased the risk of stroke in dialysis patients, which suggests the importance of closely monitoring the transient effects of initial NSAID treatment to patients on dialysis.
