Gait speed after mild stroke/transient ischemic attack was associated with long-term adverse outcomes: A cohort study.
Article in Annals of clinical and translational neurology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
objectiveThe association between gait speed and adverse outcomes after stroke has not been fully illustrated. This study aimed to explore the association of gait speed on long-term outcomes in minor stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA).
methodsWe performed a longitudinal study with acute minor stroke or TIA based on a subgroup of the Third China National Stroke Registry data. The gait speed was evaluated using a 10-meter walking test at discharge and 3 months after the stroke onset. The primary outcomes were poor functional outcomes at 1 year, defined by a modified Rankin Score (mRS) of 2-6. Additional outcomes included all-cause death, ambulate dependency (mRS score 4-6), cognitive impairment (Montreal Cognitive Assessment <26), stroke recurrence, and composite vascular events.
resultsThe study sample included a total of 1542 stroke patients with a median age of 60 (53-68). At 1-year follow-up, 140 (9.20%) patients experienced poor functional outcomes. Faster gait speed at discharge was associated with lower incidence of poor functional outcome (OR = 0.89; 95% CI, 0.84-0.94), cognitive impairment (OR = 0.93; 95% CI, 0.89-0.96), ischemic stroke recurrence (HR = 0.92; 95% CI, 0.87-0.98), and composite vascular events (HR =0.94; 95% CI, 0.89-0.99) at 1 year. Faster gait speed at 3 months was associated with lower incidence of poor functional outcome (OR = 0.90; 95% CI, 0.85-0.95), ambulate dependency (OR = 0.86; 95% CI, 0.77-0.97), and cognitive impairment (OR = 0.92; 95% CI, 0.88-0.95) at 1 year.
interpretationOur findings indicated that slow gait speed after minor stroke or TIA may be an independent predictor for long-term poor outcomes. Gait speed may be considered as a vital sign during follow-up in post-stroke patients.
