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

A significant proportion of ischemic cerebrovascular diseases are due to large vessel arterial occlusions (LVAO). Some emergency services utilize scales to detect LVAO and determine the most appropriate treatment and medical center for the patient. The aim of this review was to compare the predictive value of the RACE scale for recognizing the presence of a LVAO with other scales used in the out-of-hospital setting. A rapid review was performed by applying the PRISMA methodology in PubMed. Twenty articles focused on the pre-hospital setting were retained. The most frequently evaluated instruments were NIHSS, CPSSS, LAMS and RACE. The scales evaluated demonstrated adequate precision in the identification of such an event, without aiming to replace imag-ing tests. The RACE showed a predictive performance comparable to the other scales, although lower than the NIHSS hospital scale, it may therefore be a useful instrument in the out-of-hospital setting.
