Usefulness of upright T wave in lead aVR for predicting short-term prognosis of patients with 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
backgroundUpright T wave in lead aVR (TaVR) has recently been reported to be associated with cardiovascular death and mortality in general population and in patients with prior cardiovascular disease (CVD). However, the evidence for the predictive ability of TaVR in patients with ischemic stroke (IS) is lacking.
methodsA total of 625 consecutive patients with IS (mean age: 66 ± 12 years; 379 male) were enrolled in this study between January 2013 and December 2014. Patients were divided into upright TaVR (≥0 mV;
resultsOverall, the prevalence of upright TaVR was 32.2% at baseline. Patients with an upright TaVR were older, had a higher percentage of CVD and hypertension, higher level of MB isoenzyme of creatine kinase (CKMB), faster heart rate, higher rate of QT prolongation > 450 ms, higher rate of negative T in lead II, higher rate of negative T in lead V6, higher rate of ST depression, and longer QTc duration. During the mean follow-up period of 20.0 ± 5.8 months, 29 (4.6%) patients experienced all-cause death and 12 (1.9%) patients experienced cardiovascular death, the primary end point. Concomitantly, 94 (15%) patients experienced recurrence of IS, the secondary end point. After adjusting for clinical covariates, upright TaVR was independently associated with all-cause death [hazard ratio (
conclusionsUpright TaVR in patients with IS is associated with increased mortality and recurrence of IS.
