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

Rapid economic development in China has caused marked changes in people's lifestyles and medical technology. Exploration of stroke subtype trends is necessary to provide physicians with vital insight for early diagnosis and treatment. We included stroke patients admitted from 2006 to 2015. Trends in stroke subtypes and vascular risk factors were investigated. There were 5521 patients, including 4534 (82.1%) ischemic stroke (IS), 813 (14.7%) intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) and 174 (3.2%) subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) patients. The proportion of IS was increasing and proportions of ICH and SAH were decreasing (P < 0.001). Onset age and hypertension remained stable in stroke subtypes. In IS patients, large artery atherosclerosis (LAA) strokes increased from 17.0% to 30.8% in the first 7 years and ultimately decreased to 24.1%. Small vessel disease (SVD) strokes increased from 15.5% to 39.6%, undetermined etiology (UE) strokes decreased from 52.7% to 26.0%, others remained stable. The levels of low-density lipoprotein declined significantly, and an increased number of patients underwent intracranial artery examinations (P < 0.001). In conclusion, proportions of stroke subtypes changed significantly. Anti-hypertension therapy needs to be reinforced to control ICH, SAH and SVD ischemic stroke incidences. The etiologic detection of IS increased and lipid-lowing therapy was effective, cardioembolism detections should be reinforced.
