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

introductionSeven low-density lipoprotein (LDL) subclasses are identified, and smaller LDL particles are associated with an increased risk for cardiovascular events. However, there is limited data about the relationship between the acute ischemic stroke (AIS) subtypes and LDL subclasses. The aim of our study is to investigate the relationship between AIS subtypes and LDL subclasses.

methodsThis study consisted of 110 AIS patients and 60 healthy controls. Stroke patients were classified according to the TOAST classification system as cardioembolic infarct (CI), large artery atherosclerosis (LAA), and lacunar infarct (LI). LDL subclasses were distributed as seven bands (LDL-1 and-2 defined as large, and LDL-3 to-7 defined as small-LDL particle), using the LipoPrintª System. Control group and AIS subtypes were compared in terms of LDL subclasses; p<0.05 was considered statistically significant.

resultsAIS patients had higher LDL-2, LDL-3 and LDL-4 subclasses compared to the control groups, while LDL-1 was similar in two groups. In addition, LDL-2 and LDL-3 subclasses were significantly higher in each AIS subtype when compared to the control group. LDL-4 subclasses were significantly higher in LAA and LI subtypes than in the control group, but there was no relationship for CI subtypes. Smaller subclasses LDL-5 to LDL-7 were undetectable in both AIS patients and controls. Using regression analysis; age, LDL-2, LDL-3 and LDL-4 were found to be independent predictors of AIS development.

conclusionOur study showed that examination of LDL subclasses may be important in management of AIS patients. LDL-2, LDL-3, and LDL-4 are independent predictors of AIS development. These findings should be supported by further large studies.
