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

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a severe infectious respiratory disease caused by the novel coronavirus known as severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Multiple studies in the literature highlight the association between COVID-19 and stroke. We report a case of acute ischemic stroke in a COVID-19 patient without displaying symptoms of active COVID-19 infection or risk factors for stroke with further review of the literature. The patient's recovery was complicated by hemorrhagic stroke, which resulted in death. Acute ischemic strokes are one of the challenging complications of COVID-19 infection. Initial rapid assessment and management are crucial in optimizing the outcomes on these patients. Nevertheless, wearing appropriate PPE should be instituted while providing adequate care.
