Quality of acute stroke care in Romania: Achievements and gaps between 2017 and 2022.
Article in European stroke journal, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
Romania has one of the highest incidences of stroke and one of the highest mortality rates in Europe. The mortality rate due to treatable causes is also very high and is associated with the lowest public spending on healthcare in the European Union. Nonetheless, significant achievements in acute stroke care have been made in Romania in the last 5 years, most notably the increase of the national thrombolysis rate from 0.8% to 5.4%. Numerous educational workshops and constant communication with the stroke centers led to a solid and active stroke network. Due to the joint efforts of this stroke network and the ESO-EAST project, the quality of stroke care has significantly improved. However, Romania still faces many problems: a major lack of specialists in interventional neuroradiology and consequently a low number of stroke patients treated by thrombectomy and carotid revascularization procedures, a low number of neuro-rehabilitation centers and a country-wide lack of neurologists.
