[Prevention of ischemic stroke in old age].
Review in Zeitschrift fur Gerontologie und Geriatrie, 2024. 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
Stroke is one of the main causes of permanent disability and death and the risk increases with age. Primary and secondary prevention therefore have a high priority. The treatment of risk factors, such as high blood pressure, diabetes mellitus and hyperlipidemia is just as important as anticoagulation in atrial fibrillation, in addition to optimization of lifestyle and diet. Platelet function inhibitors play a role in the prophylaxis of recurrence, carotid surgery and stenting are used in selected patients. There is little study evidence for old people, individualized treatment planning takes functional status and comorbidities into account.
