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: Silent brain infarction (SBI) is a special type of stroke with no definitive time of onset, which can be found on pre-thrombolysis imaging examination in some patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS). However, the significance of SBI on intracranial hemorrhage transformation (HT) and clinical outcomes after intravenous thrombolysis therapy (IVT) is uncertain. We aimed to explore the effects of SBI on intracranial HT and the 3-month clinical outcome in patients with AIS after IVT. Methods: We consecutive collected patients who were diagnosed with ischemic stroke and received IVT from August 2016 to August 2022, and conducted a retrospective analysis in this study. The clinical and laboratory data were obtained from hospitalization data. Patients were divided into SBI and Non-SBI groups based on clinical and neuroimaging data. We use Cohen's Kappa to assess the interrater reliability between the two evaluators, and multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to further assess the association between SBI, HT and clinical outcomes at 3 months after IVT. Results: Of the 541 patients, 231 (46.1%) had SBI, 49 (9.1%) had HT, 438 (81%) had favorable outcome, 361 (66.7%) had excellent outcome. There was no significant difference in the incidence of HT (8.2 vs. 9.7%, Conclusion: We found that SBI was no effect for HT after thrombolysis in ischemic stroke patients, and no effect on favorable functional outcome at 3 months. Nevertheless, SBI remained an independent risk factor for non-excellent functional outcomes at 3 months.
