Ischemic Stroke and Savings in Time to Achieve Functional Recovery: Experience from NeuroAiD.
Article in Journal of cardiovascular development and disease, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Despite recent progress with revascularisation interventions after acute ischemic stroke, many patients remain disabled after stroke. Using data from a multi-centre, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of a neuro-repair treatment (NeuroAiD/MLC601) with a long-term follow-up, we analysed the savings in time to functional recovery, measured by a modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score of 0 or 1, in patients receiving a 3-month oral course of MLC601. Analysis of time to recovery was assessed by a log-rank test and hazard ratios (HRs) adjusted for prognosis factors. A total of 548 patients with baseline NIHSS scores 8-14, mRS scores ≥ 2 at day 10 post-stroke, and at least one mRS assessment on or after month 1 were included in the analysis (placebo = 261; MLC601 = 287). Time to functional recovery was significantly shortened for patients receiving MLC601 versus patients receiving placebo (log-rank test:
