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

backgroundRecurrent strokes cause greater complications and worse outcomes by adding to the existing neurological deficit. There is the paucity of data on serum markers of inflammation as predictors of recurrent stroke. This study was planned to analyze the clinico-etiological profile of recurrent noncardioembolic ischemic stroke, estimate aspirin resistance among regular aspirin users and evaluate blood biomarkers high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP), Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), Lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A

methodsPatients of recurrent noncardioembolic ischemic stroke fulfilling the inclusion criteria were enrolled. Detailed history, clinical examination, and investigations were obtained as per protocol. Aspirin resistance was determined by light transmission aggregometry. Serum hsCRP, TNF-α, and Lp-PLA2 levels were estimated.

resultsThis study included 34 males and 16 females. Majority of the patients were > 60 years (

conclusionsMajority of patients with recurrent stroke were elderly (>60 years), hypertensive, and non-compliant with aspirin. Aspirin resistance was an important factor in patients with antiplatelet compliance. Inflammatory biomarkers hsCRP, PLA2, and TNF-α were found to be significantly elevated in patients compared to controls.
