A Novel Approach to Assessing the Severity of Acute Stroke and Neurological Deficits in Patients with Acute Ischemic Stroke Using Myocardial Work Echocardiography.
Article in Anatolian journal of cardiology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundWe aimed to evaluate the feasibility and performance of myocardial work echocardiography in assessing the severity of acute stroke and neurological deficits in patients with acute ischemic stroke.
methodsA total of 176 patients were examined by echocardiography within 24-48 hours of symptom onset with the measurement of global and regional myocardial work. The National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score of each patient was documented.
resultsWith the increase of the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score, myocardial constructive work or positive work decreased (P 15 or not. The optimal cutoff value was 3.89, with a sensitivity of 100%, a specificity of 93.0%, a positive predictive value of 84.9%, a negative predictive value of 100%, and an accuracy of 95.7%.
conclusionNoninvasive myocardial work is highly competent in assessing the severity of acute stroke and neurological deficits, which can be used as a powerful supplement to the conventional scoring system.
