1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Objective: To determine the etiology spectrum and lesion distribution patterns of patients with acute multiple infarcts in multiple cerebral territories (AMIMCT) and provide guidance for treatment and prevention strategies in these patients. Methods: Patients with acute ischemic stroke diagnosed using diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) were consecutively included in this study between June 2012 and Apr 2022. AMIMCT was defined as non-contiguous focal lesions located in more than one cerebral territory with acute neurological deficits. We retrospectively analyzed the clinical and imaging characteristics, etiology spectra and underlying mechanisms in patients with and without AMIMCT. Infarct lesion patterns on DWI and their relevance to etiology were further discussed. Results: A total of 1,213 patients were enrolled, of whom 145 (12%) were diagnosed with AMIMCT. Patients with AMIMCT tended to be younger ( Conclusion: The etiologies and mechanisms of patients with AMIMCT were more complex than those without AMIMCT. The distribution characteristics of infarct lesions might have important implications for the identification of etiology and mechanism in the future, which could further guide and optimize clinical diagnostic strategies.
