High body mass index is associated with elevated risk of perioperative ischemic stroke in patients who underwent noncardiac surgery: A retrospective cohort study.
Article in CNS neuroscience & therapeutics, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
backgroundBody mass index (BMI) serves as a global metric for assessing obesity and overall health status. However, the impact of BMI, treated as a continuous variable, on the risk of perioperative stroke remains poorly understood. This retrospective cohort study aimed to elucidate the association between BMI and the risk of perioperative ischemic stroke in patients undergoing non-cardiovascular surgery.
methodsA cohort of 223,415 patients undergoing noncardiac surgery at the First Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital between January 1, 2008 and August 31, 2019 was screened. Preoperative high BMI, defined as BMI >22.64 kg/m
resultsThe overall incidence of perioperative ischemic stroke was 0.23% (n = 525) in the cohort. After adjusting for patient-related variables (OR 1.283; 95% CI, 1.04-1.594; p < 0.05), surgery-related variables (OR 1.484; 95% CI, 1.2-1.849; p < 0.001), and all confounding variables (OR 1.279; 95% CI, 1.025-1.607; p < 0.05), patients with BMI >22.64 kg/m
conclusionWe first identified BMI >22.64 kg/m
