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

backgroundSeizures are one of the most common complications of stroke. We aimed to establish the incidence and clinical profile of post-stroke early seizure (ES) in patients with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH).

methodsPatients with ICH within 10 days of onset who were admitted to Landseed International Hospital were recruited consecutively between January 1, 2006, and December 31, 2009. The National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) and the modified Rankin Scale were used to access patients initial stroke severity and functional outcome at discharge, respectively. The occurrence of epileptic seizures within 30 days after onset of the index ICH was recorded. Early post-ICH seizure was defined by the occurrence of clinically identifid seizure episodes or non-epileptic seizure within 7 days after the stroke onset.

resultsA total of 297 ICH patients were included. The mean age of the participants was 62 ± 16 years, and 72% of them were male. A total of 9 (3%) participants had seizures during acute hospitalization. Patients with seizures had higher median NIHSS scores at baseline (34 vs. 16,

conclusionsThe NIHSS scores and coronary heart disease were associated with ES in ICH, whereas cortical involvement was not. These findings may reflect difference in post-stroke seizure and primary ICH between Asian and Western populations.
