Characteristics of paramedian pontine arteries disease and its association with hemoglobinA1c.

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
Objectives: The association of branch atherosclerotic disease (BAD) and diabetes mellitus (DM) in the territory of posterior circulation is rarely discussed. Intracranial BAD was divided into two different types: paramedian pontine arteries (PPA) disease (PPD) and lenticulostriate arteries (LSA) disease. The goal of the study was to evaluate the clinical characteristics of PPD and its association with hemoglobinA1c (HbA1c) in China. Materials and Methods: Radiologically confirmed PPD was defined as an isolated unilateral infarction extending to the ventral surface of the pons. Small deep cerebral infarctions are usually caused by two different pathological changes of arteries: BAD and lipohyalinotic degeneration (LD). We compared the vascular risk factors between BAD and LD in PPA territory. A total of 159 stroke patients were analyzed (PPD, Results: Comparison between PPD and LD revealed statistical significance in fasting glucose, HbA1c, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), and uric acid ( Conclusions: The subtypes and prognosis of small deep brain infarcts are significantly influenced by elevated HbA1c level in PPA territory. DM might play an important role in the pathogenesis of PPD.
