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

Increasing evidence supports the involvement of periostin in the pathophysiological processes of stroke and atherosclerosis. The aim of this study was to assess circulating periostin levels at different times after large-artery atherosclerotic (LAA) stroke and their association with stroke. Serum periostin levels were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay on day 1 in 162 patients with LAA stroke and in 108 age- and sex-matched controls, on day 6 after stroke in 134 patients, and during the 4th week after stroke in 46 of the 162 patients. Stroke severity was determined using the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS), and the stroke volume was measured. Outcome at 3 months was measured using the modified Rankin Scale (mRS). Our results indicated that periostin levels increased significantly on day 6 after stroke, and this increasing trend persisted for at least 4 weeks after the event. In addition, the increase in periostin levels was positively correlated with the NIHSS scores and stroke volume, but not with the mRS scores after adjusting for the NIHSS scores. In conclusion, these findings suggest that the increase in serum periostin levels observed after stroke may be associated with the stroke severity in patients with LAA stroke.
