Stroke in Young Adults in Spain: Epidemiology and Risk Factors by Age.
Article in Journal of personalized medicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
introductionRecent research has highlighted an increased incidence of ischemic stroke (IS) in young adults, along with a higher percentage of vascular risk factors at younger ages. This study aimed to estimate the in-hospital incidence of IS and associated comorbidities by sex and age group in Spain.
methodsA retrospective analysis of the Spain Nationwide Inpatient Sample database from 2016 to 2019 was conducted, which included adult patients with IS. In-hospital incidence and mortality rates were estimated, and a descriptive analysis of the main comorbidities was performed, stratified by sex and age groups.
resultsA total of 186,487 patients were included, with a median age of 77 (IQR 66-85) years and 53.3% were male. Of these, 9162 (5%) were aged between 18 and 50 years. The estimated incidence of IS in adults younger than 50 years ranged from 11.9 to 13.5 per 100,000 inhabitants during the study period, with a higher incidence in men. The overall in-hospital mortality was 12.6%. Young adults with IS had a higher prevalence of most vascular risk factors compared to the general Spanish population, with a specific distribution according to sex and age.
conclusionsThis study provides estimates of the incidence of IS and the prevalence of vascular risk factors and comorbidities associated with IS in Spain, stratified by sex and age, using a national registry of hospital admissions. These findings should be considered in terms of both primary and secondary prevention strategies.
