Association between Cerebrovascular Risk Factors and Collateral Compensation in Chronic Symptomatic Intracranial Vertebrobasilar Stenosis.

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
introductionThe level of collateral compensation plays a pivotal role in chronic symptomatic intracranial vertebrobasilar stenosis (IVBS). This study aimed to evaluate the association between cerebrovascular risk factors and collateral compensation in chronic symptomatic IVBS.
methodsThis single-center cross-sectional study retrospectively reviewed 238 patients with angiographically demonstrated IVBS and divided them into good collateral compensation (GCC) group (collateral grade: 3-4, n = 110) and poor collateral compensation (PCC) group (collateral grade: 0-2, n = 128). The demographic information, laboratory tests, and clinical data of the two groups were compared and assessed using univariate logistic regression. Multivariate logistic regression was employed to analyze the independent related factors of collateral compensation.
resultsHyperlipidemia, high-density lipoprotein (HDL), and fasting blood glucose (FBG) were significantly different between the two groups. Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that HDL (odds ratio [OR]: 1.134, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.081-1.190), FBG (OR: 0.945, 95% CI: 0.925-0.964), and hyperlipidemia (OR: 0.261, 95% CI: 0.129-0.527) were statistically independent related factors of collateral compensation. The receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) analysis provided cutoff values of 34 mg/dL and 135 mg/dL for HDL and FBG associated with GCC and PCC.
conclusionHigher HDL levels are associated with higher incidence of GCC, whereas higher FBG levels and hyperlipidemia are associated with higher incidence of PCC.
