Predictors of stroke outcome: the role of hemorheology, natural anticoagulants, and serum albumin.
Article in The Egyptian journal of neurology, psychiatry and neurosurgery, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 25 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundThe early hours after an acute stroke are crucial; early accurate prediction of outcome in stroke patients can help health system providers and families to choose appropriate lines of management and plan for the future. The aim of this work is to assess the role of hemorheological parameters (such as blood viscosity, hematocrit, platelet aggregation, and leukocyte count), protein C, protein S, antithrombin III, and serum albumin as predictors of stroke outcome.
methodsThirty subjects, 20 patients with acute ischemic stroke within 24 h from the onset and 10 normal subjects, were included in this case control study. Clinical, functional, and radiological evaluation was done for the patients, and all patients and control were subjected to routine laboratory tests and assessment of blood viscosity, hematocrit level, platelet aggregation, protein C, protein S, and antithrombin III.
resultsPlatelet aggregation was significantly higher and serum albumin was significantly lower in stroke patients compared to control (
conclusionSerum albumin, hematocrit level, and total leukocyte count at the time of presentation of ischemic stroke are useful markers for stroke outcome.
