Alzheimer's Disease and Stroke: A Tangled Neurological Conundrum.
Review in Cureus, 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
A neurodegenerative disorder, Alzheimer's disease (AD), is characterized by dementia in which there is an age-related decline in cognition and higher functions. Stroke is a cerebrovascular disorder that frequently presents in old age and is a known risk factor for AD development. However, the association that AD can be a risk factor for stroke is not well-studied. This review article compiled various studies that pointed out the association between stroke development in patients with dementia, particularly AD-related dementia. The pathophysiological progression of stroke in AD cases and the genetic makeup possibly affecting the interrelation between these disorders were analyzed in detail using currently available data and studies. Therapeutic and management modalities already in use for AD were put together, and the possibility of early intervention in such patients benefitting cerebrovascular pathologies, particularly stroke-related, was explored. Prognostic differences between patients of stroke with and without AD were also reviewed, and how appropriate management can reduce the burden on health care settings when both present simultaneously was emphasized.
