Diagnostic accuracy of major stroke types in Chinese adults: A clinical adjudication study involving 40,000 stroke cases.

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: Widespread use of brain imaging in suspected stroke cases in Chinese adults has prompted the need for clinical adjudication studies of stroke types. We conducted a clinical adjudication study to assess the reporting and diagnostic accuracy of major stroke types. Methods: The prospective China Kadoorie Biobank recruited >512,000 adults (mean age 52 years, 59% women) from 10 urban and rural areas in China during 2004-2008, and recorded 45,859 first-ever incident stroke cases during an 11-year follow-up. Medical records were retrieved in ∼85%, and clinical details were recorded using a handheld computer for specialist physician adjudicators who applied conventional WHO clinical criteria for diagnosis of stroke. The positive predictive value (PPV) for reported and adjudicated stroke cases was examined for major stroke types (ischaemic stroke [IS], intracerebral haemorrhage [ICH], subarachnoid haemorrhage [SAH]), calendar year, area, and hospital type. Findings: Of 38,823 cases with retrieved medical records, the PPV for reported strokes was 91%. Among 29,952 adjudicated cases, the PPV for adjudicated cases was 81%, with higher PPV for ICH ( Interpretation: While the overall reporting and diagnostic accuracy of stroke types in Chinese adults is high, the recent implementation of new diagnostic criteria for IS has important implications for contemporary clinical practice and research on stroke in Chinese populations.
