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

objectiveTo investigate whether acute convexity subarachnoid hemorrhage (cSAH) detected on CT in lobar intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) related to cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) is associated with recurrent ICH.

methodsWe analyzed data from a prospective cohort of consecutive acute lobar ICH survivors fulfilling the Boston criteria for possible or probable CAA who had both brain CT and MRI at index ICH. Presence of cSAH was assessed on CT blinded to MRI data. Cortical superficial siderosis (cSS), cerebral microbleeds, and white matter hyperintensities were evaluated on MRI. Cox proportional hazard models were used to assess the association between cSAH and the risk of recurrent symptomatic ICH during follow-up.

resultsA total of 244 ICH survivors (76.4 ± 8.7 years; 54.5% female) were included. cSAH was observed on baseline CT in 99 patients (40.5%). Presence of cSAH was independently associated with cSS, hematoma volume, and preexisting dementia. During a median follow-up of 2.66 years, 49 patients (20.0%) had recurrent symptomatic ICH. Presence of cSAH was associated with recurrent ICH (hazard ratio 2.64; 95% confidence interval 1.46-4.79;

conclusioncSAH was detected on CT in 40.5% of patients with acute lobar ICH related to CAA and heralds an increased risk of recurrent ICH. This CT marker may be widely used to stratify the ICH risk in patients with CAA. CLASSIFICATION OF EVIDENCE: This study provides Class II evidence that cSAH accurately predicts recurrent stroke in patients with CAA.
