Swallowing function after acute ischemic stroke: Development and validation of a novel clinical prognostic model.
Article in Frontiers in nutrition, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Background: Predicting the duration of dysphagia after acute ischemic stroke (AIS) is important for clinical treatment decisions. Objective: The purpose of this study is to assess the swallowing function of AIS patients and to develop and validate a prognostic model for the need for nasogastric tube (NGT) in these patients. Materials and methods: We included 554 AIS patients during 2018-2019 as the development group and had 186 AIS patients as the external validation group. The primary end point of the study was the retention of NGT in patients 1 week after admission (Functional Oral Intake Scale ≤ 4). Swallowing function and stroke-associated pneumonia (SAP) at 1 month post-onset were also the objectives of this study. The volume-viscosity swallow test (V-VST) was used to assess the patient's impaired swallowing function. The Predictive model was built by logistic regression. Results: Overall, a total of 104 patients required indwelling NGT at 1 week of AIS onset in development group. The final prognostic model includes 5 variables: age (OR: 1.085, 95%CI: 1.049-1.123), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) (OR: 1.332, 95%CI: 1.090-1.626), NIHSS (OR: 1.092, 95%CI: 1.025-1.164), history of drinking (OR: 2.532, 95%CI: 1.452-4.417) and stroke location (Subtentorial vs. Supratentorial, OR: 1.954, 95%CI: 1.088-3.509). The prediction model had an AUC of 0.810, while the external validation group was 0.794. Conclusion: In stroke patients, it is very important to decide early whether to indwell a NGT. The nomogram will support decision making for NGT insertion and help these patients recover from their condition.
