Prevalence and risk factors of stroke in a rural area of northern China: a 10-year comparative study.
Article in Aging clinical and experimental research, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
aimsStroke is currently the leading cause of death in China; however, the past decade has produced no new epidemiological studies of stroke. Therefore, the current study aimed to compare the prevalence and risk factors of stroke between 2010 and 2019.
methodsA comparative study was used to analyze the prevalence of risk factors for stroke in a population aged 65 years or older between 2010 and 2019. Demographic characteristics, risk factors, medical history, and other clinical characteristics were collected for all participants via door-to-door interviews and inpatient hospital records.
resultsThe standardized prevalence of stroke was 7.9% in 2010 and 14.2% in 2019 (p < 0.001). The prevalence of stroke was significantly higher in men than in women (p < 0.05) for all age groups. The risk factors of stroke were being male, hypertension, and diabetes mellitus in both 2010 and 2019. When comparing the risk factors between 2010 and 2019, these risk factors were statistically significantly more strongly associated with stroke in 2019 than in 2010.
conclusionThe current study suggests that the prevalence of stroke increased nearly by twofold in a population aged 65 years or older within the past 10 years. Hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and being male were the primary risk factors. In addition, these factors were more significantly associated with stroke in 2019 compared to 2010.
