Effects of cerebral small vessel disease on the outcomes in cryptogenic stroke with active cancer.
Article in Scientific reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Cerebral small vessel diseases (cSVDs) affect the prognosis of various types of ischemic stroke. Therefore, we evaluated the association between cSVD and the prognosis of cryptogenic stroke patients with active cancer. We enrolled patients diagnosed with cryptogenic stroke and active cancer from 2010 to 2016. Early neurological deterioration (END) was defined as a ≥ 2-point increase in the total NIHSS score or a ≥ 1-point increase in the motor NIHSS score within the first 72 h. We defined an unfavorable outcome as the modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score ≥ 3 points. We analyzed cSVD separately for each subtype including white matter hyperintensity (WMH), silent brain infarct (SBI), and cerebral microbleed (CMB). A total of 179 cryptogenic stroke patients with active cancer were evaluated. In the multivariable analysis, SBI was significantly associated with END (adjusted odds ratio = 3.97, 95% confidence interval: 1.53-10.33). This close relationship between SBI and END increased proportionally with an increase in SBI burden. However, WMH and CMB showed no significant association with END. None of the cSVD subtypes showed a statistically significant relationship with the 3-month unfavorable outcome. SBI was the only parameter closely associated with END in cryptogenic stroke patients with active cancer.
