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.

Abstract

backgroundLumbrokinase has been widely used for patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) in China; however, because rigorously designed studies are lacking, safety and efficacy of lumbrokinase in the treatment of acute ischemic stroke remains largely unknown. In this multicenter, randomized, and controlled trial, we aim to compare lumbrokinase plus aspirin versus aspirin alone in patients with acute ischemic stroke.

methodsA total of 220 eligible participants will be randomized to either the intervention or control group with a 1:1 ratio. These participants must be diagnosed with acute ischemic stroke for the first time, whose symptoms appear within 72 h. Their NIHSS score must be greater than 5 and less than 15, and their age must be between 35 and 85 years old. They must have not received intravenous thrombolysis, arterial thrombolysis, or intravascular intervention. Participants in the intervention group will be treated with lumbrokinase plus aspirin for the first 90 days. Participants in the control group will use placebo plus aspirin for the first 90 days. Then, all participants will be treated with aspirin only and followed up for another 90 days (180-day follow-up). The primary outcome is the modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score. The secondary outcomes are National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score, Activity of Daily Living (ADL) Scale score, coagulation function, and serum hypersensitive C-reactive protein. The exploratory outcomes are fasting lipid panel, recurrence rate, the occurrence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events, and the mortality rate. Safety evaluations include liver function and kidney function, serum fibrinogen, adverse events, serious adverse events, and bleeding events. Adherence of participants will also be assessed. DISCUSSION: This trial will investigate the efficacy and safety of lumbrokinase plus aspirin as compared to aspirin alone in the treatment of acute ischemic stroke.
