Impact of COVID-19 outbreak on stroke admission in Thailand: a quasi-experimental, ecological study on national database.
Article in Infection ecology & epidemiology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
This study aimed to evaluate the effect of COVID-19 outbreak on stroke admission by using a national database. A quasi-experimental, ecological study using the national database of Thailand was conducted. The study period was between January 2017 and August 2020 before and after COVID-19 outbreak starting from March 2020. Numbers of stroke admission were evaluated before and after the COVID-19 outbreak by an interrupted time series analysis for both pre- and post-COIVD-19 outbreak. There were 381,891 patients admitted throughout Thailand. Of those, 292,382 patients (76.56%) were admitted due to thrombotic stroke followed by hemorrhagic stroke (73,130 patients; 19.15%) and embolic stroke (16,379 patients; 4.29%). During pre-COVID-19 outbreak, all stroke subtypes had an increasing trend with a coefficient of 0.076 (
