Adjunctive Statin Therapy Reduces Mortality After Acute Hemorrhagic Stroke.
Article in Risk management and healthcare policy, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundStatin treatment improves clinical outcomes in patients with ischemic strokes, although there is no evidence regarding the safety of statin therapy in patients with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). This study aimed at evaluating the effects of continuing statin treatment after ICH.
methodsData were obtained from the National Health Insurance Research Database in Taiwan. We retrospectively compared the data of patients with and without statin exposure after ICH. The outcomes of interest were recurrence of hemorrhagic stroke and mortality during a follow-up period of 10 years.
resultsDuring the 10-year follow-up period, the mortality rate was 32.73% in the statin group and 42.77% in the non-statin group. Statin therapy in patients with acute ICH with dyslipidemia can decrease mortality.
conclusionStatin therapy reduced the risk of 10-year mortality in patients who experienced acute hemorrhagic stroke.
