Cognitive impairment and sleep disturbances after minor ischemic stroke.

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
purposePost-stroke cognitive impairment (PSCI) is common among stroke survivors, although its risk factors are not well understood. Here, we assessed cognitive function in patients within 14 days after minor stroke and investigated the risk factors of PSCI, including sleep-related factors.
methodsPatients with minor acute ischemic stroke (n = 86) were continuously recruited from November 2015 to October 2016. Demographic and clinical data were collected, and cognitive assessment and polysomnography were performed. Based on their cognitive performance, stroke patients were divided into PSCI and no PSCI groups. Age-, sex-, and education-matched participants (n = 36) were included as a healthy control (HC) group.
resultsStroke patients showed impairments in multiple cognitive domains relative to HC participants (p < 0.01). Among stroke patients, the prevalence of PSCI and obstructive sleep apnea was 81.4 and 74.4%, respectively. Impairments in attention and working memory (87.1%) and executive function (84.3%) were the most common among stroke patients. Compared with no PSCI patients, PSCI patients showed a higher prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea (50.0 vs. 80.0%, p = 0.030) and shorter total sleep time (435.1 ± 104.0 vs. 347.3 ± 98.1 min, p = 0.002). Logistic regression analysis showed that education duration, total sleep time, and lowest SaO
conclusionsThe prevalence of PSCI is high after minor ischemic stroke. In particular, attention and working memory and executive function are most commonly impaired. Although the risk factors for PSCI are numerous, shorter total sleep time and degree of hypoxia at night warrant further attention.
