Prospectively Collected Cardiovascular Biomarkers and White Matter Hyperintensity Volume in Ischemic Stroke Patients.
Observational study in Journal of stroke and cerebrovascular diseases : the official journal of National Stroke Association, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundFew prospective cohort studies collect detailed information on stroke characteristics among individuals who experience ischemic stroke, including white matter hyperintensity volume, and thus cannot explore how prospectively collected biomarkers prior to the stroke influence white matter hyperintensity volume. We explored the association between a large panel of prospectively collected lipid and inflammatory biomarkers and white matter hyperintensity volume among participants in the Women's Health Study with incident ischemic stroke.
methodsAmong Women's Health Study participants with first ischemic stroke who had baseline serum biomarkers and available magnetic resonance imaging, we measured white matter hyperintensity volume using a validated semi-automated method. Linear regression was used to explore the associations between biomarkers and log-transformed white matter hyperintensity volume.
resultsAfter multivariate adjustment, a 1% increment in HbA1c% was associated with an increase in white matter hyperintensity volume (P value = .05). Evidence of a nonlinear association between high density lipoprotein cholesterol levels and ApoA1 levels with white matter hyperintensity volume was noted (P values for nonlinearity = .01 and .001, respectively). No other biomarkers were significantly associated with white matter hyperintensity volume.
conclusionsChronic hyperglycemia as evidenced by HbA1c levels measured years prior to stroke is associated with white matter hyperintensity volume at the time of stroke. Additional research is needed to explain why low levels of high density lipoprotein cholesterol levels and ApoA1 may be associated with similar white matter hyperintensity volume as high levels.
