Association and temporal sequence of pneumonia and gastrointestinal bleeding after acute ischemic stroke.
Article in BMC gastroenterology, 2024. 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
backgroundStroke-associated pneumonia (SAP) and gastrointestinal bleeding (GIB) are common medical complications after stroke. The previous study suggested a strong association between SAP and GIB after stroke. However, little is known about the time sequence of SAP and GIB. In the present study, we aimed to verify the association and clarify the temporal sequence of SAP and GIB after ischemic stroke.
methodsPatients with ischemic stroke from in-hospital Medical Complication after Acute Stroke study were analyzed. Data on occurrences of SAP and GIB during hospitalization and the intervals from stroke onset to diagnosis of SAP and GIB were collected. Multiple logistic regression was used to evaluate the association between SAP and GIB. Kruskal-Wallis test was used to compare the time intervals from stroke onset to diagnosis of SAP and GIB.
resultsA total of 1129 patients with ischemic stroke were included. The median length of hospitalization was 14 days. Overall, 86 patients (7.6%; 95% CI, 6.1-9.2%) developed SAP and 47 patients (4.3%; 95% CI, 3.0-5.3%) developed GIB during hospitalization. After adjusting potential confounders, SAP was significantly associated with the development of GIB after ischemic stroke (OR = 5.13; 95% CI, 2.02-13.00; P < 0.001). The median time from stroke onset to diagnosis of SAP was shorter than that of GIB after ischemic stroke (4 days vs. 5 days; P = 0.039).
conclusionsSAP was associated with GIB after ischemic stroke, and the onset time of SAP was earlier than that of GIB. It is imperative to take precautions to prevent GIB in stroke patients with SAP.
