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

objectiveTo assess the clinical effect and safety of double anti-platelet therapy combined with different doses of statins for acute cerebral infarction complicated with microhemorrhage.

methodsA total of 312 patients who had acute cerebral infarction complicated with microhemorrhage in our hospital were randomly allocated into two groups: the experimental group (n=164) and group for control (n=148). Those in the group for experiment received dual antiplatelet rosuvastatin tablets (20 mg QN), while the control group received dual antiplatelet rosuvastatin tablets (10 mg QN). After 30 days of treatment, blood biochemistry and brain magnetic resonance imaging were performed to record the serum lipid levels, liver transaminase, inflammatory and oxidative stress indicators and other biochemical indicators as well as the number of cerebral microhemorrhage foci.

resultsSerum lipids in both groups after intervention were decreased compared to those without intervention (P < 0.05). Furthermore, after receiving the intervention, the HCY and inflammatory indicators (such as hs-CRP) of the two groups were improved compared to before intervention (P < 0.05). The safety index (Aspartate aminotransferase (AST), Alanine aminotransferase (ALT), Creatine kinase (CK), creatinine (Cr)) had no statistically significant difference than those without intervention in the two groups (P > 0.05).

conclusionRosuvastatin can effectively regulate blood lipids and Hcy levels in patients with acute cerebral infarction and microbleeds, and it can reduce blood lipids and inflammation; furthermore, high dose rosuvastatin has better improvement effects and higher safety in a shorter period time.
