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

Acute ischemic stroke (AIS) in childhood is defined by a stroke occurring after 28 days of life to 18 years of age. This presents a distinct clinical challenge in terms of both diagnosis and treatment. The overlapping clinical presentations of acute ischemic stroke and its mimics such as migraine with aura, seizure with Todd paresis and encephalitis renders early accurate diagnosis of this time-sensitive condition difficult, with a change in the final diagnosis in up to 40% of patients. Identification of the etiology after establishing the diagnosis of ischemic stroke is paramount for prognostication and treatment decisions. These include cardioembolic, arteriopathy, thrombophilia and inflammatory causes. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) plays an indispensable role towards tackling the initial diagnostic dilemma and subsequent evaluation of the underlying etiology, particularly in patients with arteriopathy. Here we present the MRI findings including vessel wall imaging with longitudinal follow-up, which support the diagnosis of focal cerebral arteriopathy-inflammatory type (FCAi) in a pediatric patient.
