Sex Differences in Ischemic Stroke Within the Younger Age Group: A Register-Based Study.
Article in Frontiers in neurology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundStroke incidence is decreasing in most developing countries. However, worrisome trends of an increase in the younger population have been described.
aimTo investigate sex differences and longitudinal changes in ischemic stroke regarding incidence, cardiovascular risk factors, and outcome, in the young.
methodsThis is an observational study based on the data from the Swedish national stroke registry, Riksstroke. Patients, 18-54 years of age, having ischemic stroke between 2005 and 2018 were included, resulting in a study population of 16,210 patients.
resultsThe incidence was higher in men than in women (30.6 vs. 19.1 per 100,000,
conclusionsThe results show that there are sex differences in ischemic stroke in the younger age group regarding incidence and vascular risk factors, particularly smoking. Temporal trends in stroke incidence are difficult to interpret as fluctuations are substantial, largely due to stroke being quite uncommon in the younger population.
