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

Background: Stress hyperglycemia frequently occurs in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS). The influence of stress hyperglycemia on the outcomes of patients with AIS remains ambiguous. Methods: Data from our institution on patients with AIS between June 2020 and June 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. The severity of the stroke was assessed using the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) at admission, and the primary endpoint was functional outcomes. Stress hyperglycemia was measured by the glucose-to-HbA1c ratio. In the multivariable analysis, two models that retained or excluded the NIHSS were adopted to explore the relationship between stress hyperglycemia and outcomes. The receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was calculated to determine an optimized cutoff value. Results: The optimal cutoff value was 1.135. When all patients were included, model 1 did not find an association between the glucose-to-HbA1c ratio and functional outcomes. In model 2, the glucose-to-HbA1c ratio Conclusion: The glucose-to-HbA1c ratio was associated with more severe AIS. Specifically, the glucose-to-HbA1c ratio was associated with the functional outcomes in patients without diabetes but not in patients with diabetes.
