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

introductionSmoking is a common risk factor for stroke in the young population. Intracranial artery dissection (ICAD) is a major cause of stroke in this population. However, the association between smoking and ICAD in young patients is not well characterized. We aimed to evaluate the association between smoking and ICAD in young individuals using propensity score-matched analysis.

methodsWe conducted a retrospective study of consecutive patients aged <50 years with ICAD who were admitted to Beijing Tiantan Hospital between January 2016 and December 2020. Patients with other non-atherosclerotic/non-aneurysmal cerebrovascular diseases were selected as controls. Propensity score matching was based on age and sex. Smoking and other vascular risk factors were compared between the two groups.

resultsThe ICAD and control group included 120 and 197 patients, respectively. Propensity score matching resulted in 70 matched pairs. Smoking was the only significant factor association with ICAD in the matched cohort (p=0.031).

conclusionsIn this propensity score-matched analysis, smoking showed a positive association with ICAD in young patients with common cerebrovascular diseases that were neither atherosclerotic nor aneurysmal. Further studies are required to investigate the predictive role of smoking for ICAD in the young population.
