Red blood cell distribution width is associated with neuronal damage in acute ischemic stroke.
Article in Aging, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 17 papers.
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
Elevated red blood cell distribution width (RDW) has been found to be associated with the occurrence of ischemic stroke. However, there is no defined relationship between RDW and neuronal damage in acute ischemic stroke (AIS). This study was designed to determine the relationship between RDW and neuronal damage in AIS patients. A total of 442 consecutive AIS patients from January 2018 to June 2019 were evaluated for neuronal damage, which was estimated by serum neuron-specific enolase (NSE) levels. Red blood cell distribution width-standard deviation (RDW-SD), a parameter that reflects the heterogeneity of red blood cell volume, was also assessed. We evaluated the association between the RDW-SD and serum NSE level through multivariate-adjusted linear regression analysis. Both the serum NSE level and the incidence of high NSE increased according to the increased RDW-SD tertile in AIS patients (
