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
backgroundThe value of identifying and targeting population demographics at high risk of stroke based on patient-reported outcomes (PROs) with electronic health records (EHRs) in Shanghai is largely undiscovered.
aimTo test the hypothesis that establishing an evidence-based support system composed of PROs integrated with EHRs could be effective at identifying individuals at high risk of suffering from stroke.
methodsThe patients included in this study joined the hypertensive patient management system from 2014 to 2018. We merged the Hypertension Patients Management Database and the Diabetes Mellitus Patients Management Database of Shanghai Jiading district, then kept the hypertension patients with or without diabetes. We subsequently performed a screen analysis utilizing EHRs to target the population with any risk factor for stroke, namely, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, obesity, smoking and physical inactivity. We also calculated the distribution of each risk factor and the combinations of risk factors.
resultsIn the Jiading District of Shanghai, 46,580 hypertensive patients with complete baseline information joined the hypertensive patient management system from 2014 to 2018. The majority of the patients were aged above 60 years old. Physical inactivity (83.24%), smoking (24.07%), diabetes (16.87%), and obesity (12.23%) were highly prevalent in hypertensive participants. Approximately 4377 patients were diagnosed with hypertension exclusively, accounting for 9.70% of the total number of patients in this study. Meanwhile, approximately 52.47% of the patients were diagnosed with two concurrent risk factors, and 38.13% of the patients had hypertension, meaning that 17,762 patients could be labeled as the high-risk population for stroke according to the criteria established by the National Stroke Screening Survey.
conclusionOur exploratory findings demonstrate the feasibility of pinpointing and targeting populations at high risk of stroke using the EHRs of hypertensive patients.
