Enhanced versus standard hydration in acute ischemic stroke: REVIVE-A randomized clinical trial.
Trial report in International journal of stroke : official journal of the International Stroke Society, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT02099383 (A Phase III Trial of BUN/Cr-based Hydration Therapy to Reduce Stroke-in-evolution and Improve Short-term Functional Outcomes for Dehydrated Patients With Acute Ischemic Stroke), which is not on this map.

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

Abstract
rationaleEarly neurological deterioration (END) within 72 h of stroke onset is associated with poor prognosis. Optimizing hydration might reduce the risk of END.
aimsThis study aimed to determine in acute ischemic stroke patients if enhanced hydration versus standard hydration reduced the incidence of major (primary) and minor (secondary) END, as well as whether it increased the incidence of early neurological improvement (secondary), at 72 h after admission. SAMPLE SIZE ESTIMATE: A total of 244 participants per arm. METHODS AND
designA prospective, double-blinded, multicenter, parallel-group, randomized controlled trial conducted at four hospitals from April 2014 to July 2020, with data analyzed in August 2020. The sample size estimated was 488 participants (244 per arm). Ischemic stroke patients with measurable neurological deficits of onset within 12 h of emergency department presentation and blood urea nitrogen/creatinine (BUN/Cr) ratio ⩾ 15 at point of admission were enrolled and randomized to 0.9% sodium chloride infusions of varying rates-enhanced hydration (20 mL/kg body weight, one-third given via bolus and remainder over 8 h) versus standard hydration (60 mL/h for 8 h), followed by maintenance infusion of 40-80 mL/h for the subsequent 64 h. The primary outcome measure was the incidence of major END at 72 h after admission, defined as an increase in National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale of ⩾ 4 points from baseline.
resultsOverall, 487 participants were randomized (median age 67 years; 287 females). At 72 h, 7 (2.9%) in the enhanced hydration arm and 5 (2.0%) in the standard hydration developed major END (p = 0.54). The incidence of minor END and early neurological improvement did not differ between treatment arms. CONCLUSION AND RELEVANCE: Enhanced hydration did not reduce END or improve short-term outcomes in acute ischemic stroke.
