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

contextStroke caused 6.7 million deaths worldwide in 2013. In India, the cumulated incidence of stroke was 105-152/100,000 persons per year in last decade. Dearth of data on predictors of stroke subtype and severity in India lead to this study.

aims(1) To categorize presenting stroke patients by subtype and severity. (2) To establish association of risk factors with above. (3) To predict subtype and severity by risk factors. SETTINGS AND

designHospital-based cross-sectional analytic, retrospective study. SUBJECTS AND

methodsA predesigned, pretested, semi-structured questionnaire with standard tool (National Institute of Health Stroke Scale Score), informed consent after prior approval of institutional ethics and research committees. STATISTICAL ANALYSIS USED: Percentages, proportions, Chi-square trends, linear regression, independent

resultsMean age of 102 patients was 62.1 (±12.8 years). Stroke subtype associated with socioeconomic status (χ

conclusionsStroke subtype is significantly associated with higher socioeconomic status and severe stroke. Stroke severity is significantly associated with hemorrhagic stroke. Stroke subtype, sex, dyslipidemia, alcohol intake, and education may act as predictors of stroke severity.
