Implementation of stroke care & road safety in India: Lessons from Australia.
Review in The Indian journal of medical research. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
India is home to one-fifth of the world's population and is currently the fastest-growing economy. As the health industry is growing, India needs to develop robust implementation of evidence-based health care addressing the major public health issues. Two of such issues India is grappling with are the establishment of stroke care and the reduction of road accidents. Australia has achieved notable success in implementing stroke care and reducing road accidents. In stroke, Australian initiatives include dedicated stroke units, the development of clinical guidelines, the implementation of acute interventions, the establishment of a national stroke foundation, and the stroke registry. As a result, the combined, primary, and secondary prevention measures, acute treatment, and rehabilitation have reduced the total disease burden of stroke from 2003 to 2023 by 53 per cent, from 7.4 to 3.5 Disability Adjusted Life Years (DALYS) per 1,000 population, which is a 56 per cent decline in fatal burden and 23 per cent decline in non-fatal burden. For road safety, Australia implemented evidence-based practices such as education, legislation including mandatory use of seat belts, and other road safety initiatives. Data show that seat belt use reached 98 per cent in Australia in 2023. Furthermore, about 20 per cent of drivers as well as passengers who were killed in crashes in 2024 did not wear seat belts. The reduction of speed limits in built-up areas, the adoption of monitoring technology, and the clever use of infrastructure are proving to be effective in reducing fatalities and serious injuries. Australia's implementation research can provide valuable insights into the efforts of mitigating the impact of stroke and enhancing road safety in India.
