Clinical Course and Recurrence in Transient Global Amnesia: A Study From the TEMPiS Telestroke Network.
Article in Journal of clinical neurology (Seoul, Korea), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
background and purposeWhile the clinical hallmarks of transient global amnesia (TGA) are well defined, its pathophysiological causes are poorly understood. Specifically, risk factors for recurrences are yet to be determined.
methodsThis retrospective study analyzed TGA cases diagnosed and treated within the TEMPiS telestroke network and a university stroke center in Germany. Demographic and clinical data were assessed and characteristics of TGA episodes were recorded, such as season of occurrence, trigger factors, duration, and concomitant symptoms. Follow-up of the potential recurrence of TGA was performed using a standardized questionnaire.
resultsOverall 109 patients were included (age 64±8 years [mean±SD], 59.6% female). The most common vascular risk factor was arterial hypertension (60.6%), and other concomitant conditions included migraine (11.9%), hypothyroidism (22.9%), and atrial fibrillation (4.6%). The most frequent concomitant clinical feature accompanying the TGA episode at admission was elevated blood pressure (48.6%). Nineteen patients experienced at least one recurrent TGA episode. Migraine and hypothyroidism were only observed in subjects with a single TGA episode without recurrence (migraine: 14.4% without recurrence vs. none in the recurrence group,
conclusionsArterial hypertension is prevalent in TGA patients, with elevated blood pressure being the most-frequent concomitant condition. In our cohort, recurrence of TGA occurred in approximately one-fifth of patients. Concomitant conditions such as migraine, hypothyroidism, and atrial fibrillation occurred at different frequencies in the two groups.
