The Potential Role of Gender in the Incidence, Management, and Outcomes of Stroke in Patients Suffering From COVID-19: A Brief Review.
Review in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Gender-disaggregated data are continuously needed in all aspects of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, including cerebrovascular disease in patients infected with SARS-CoV-2. This brief review was conducted to summarize available evidence and highlight potential sex differences regarding the incidence, applied therapies, and outcomes of stroke in patients with COVID-19. Local and global registries of such patients were included, where comparisons with historical (pre-pandemic era) and contemporary (stroke patients negative for SARS-CoV-2) cohorts formed the basis of the analysis. According to the herein reported evidence, the frequency of stroke under COVID-19 does not seem to vary according to gender, although a tendency toward male predominance cannot be excluded. In terms of management and outcomes, more advanced therapies are used in men. Follow-up data on gender differences are needed, as the pandemic is evolving (no lockdowns; new strains; vaccinated or naturally immune populations).
