Estonian young stroke registry: High burden of risk factors and high prevalence of cardiomebolic and large-artery stroke.
Article in European stroke journal, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 6 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
BACKGROUND AND
aimsThe aim of the present study was to assess the risk factor burden and stroke etiology of young stroke patients in Estonia and to compare the results with similar cohorts from other countries.
methodsThis study includes ischemic stroke patients aged 18-54 years from the prospective Estonian Young Stroke Registry between 2013 and 2020. All patients were managed in a stroke unit following a prespecified detailed protocol. Data on stroke risk factors, etiology, and stroke severity were analyzed.
resultsA total of 437 patients (mean age 44.7 ± 8.3 years; 62% males) were included in the registry during the 8-year study period. A total of 50.2% of patients had ≥ 3 well-documented risk factors (higher for men: odds ratio (OR) 3.8; 95% cardiac index confidence interval (CI) 1.8-8.3;
conclusionsOur study revealed that young patients with stroke in Estonia have higher burden of well-documented risk factors, higher prevalence of high-risk cardioembolic causes and higher prevalence of large-artery stroke compared to other young stroke cohorts.
