One-year mortality after acute stroke: a prospective cohort study from a comprehensive stroke care centre, Kerala, India.
Article in BMJ open, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
objectivesThe primary objective was to report the 1-year all-cause mortality among patients with stroke. The secondary objectives were (1) to report the mortality stratified by type of stroke and sex and (2) to report predictors of 1-year mortality among patients with stroke.
designA prospective cohort study.
settingInstitutional-stroke care unit of a tertiary care hospital
participantsPatients who were treated in the study institution during 2016-2020 for acute stroke and were followed up for a period of 1 year after stroke in the same institution.
main outcome measuresThe main outcome measures were the mortality proportion of any stroke and first ever stroke cohorts at select time points, including in-hospital stay, along with 2 weeks, 2 months, 6 months and 1 year after index stroke. The secondary outcomes were (1) mortality proportions stratified by sex and type of stroke and (2) predictors of 1-year mortality for any stroke and first ever stroke.
resultsWe recruited a total of 1336 patients. The mean age of participants was 61.6 years (13.5 years). The mortality figures for 2 weeks, 2 months, 6 months and 12 months after discharge were 79 (5.9%), 88 (6.7%), 101 (7.6%) and 114 (8.5%), respectively, in the full cohort. The in-hospital mortality was 45 (3.4%). The adjusted analysis revealed 3 predictors for 1-year mortality after first ever stroke-age, pre-treatment National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score and Modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score at baseline. The same for the full cohort had only two predictors-age and pre-treatment NIHSS score.
conclusionMortality of stroke at 1-year follow-up in the study population is low in comparison to several studies published earlier. The predictors of 1-year mortality after stroke included age, NIHSS score at baseline and mRS score at baseline.
