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
Objective: The objective of the current review aimed to assess if patients with bipolar disorder (BD) have an increased risk of stroke. Methods: A literature search was conducted on PubMed, Embase, ScienceDirect, and Web of Science for studies published from inception to 20 Results: Eight studies with 9187894 participants were eligible. Meta-analysis of all eight studies demonstrated that BD patients have an increased risk of stroke as compared to non-BD individuals (HR: 1.60 95% CI: 1.24, 2.05 I Conclusion: Patients with bipolar disorder (BD) may have an increased risk of stroke in comparison to the general population. The results are limited by the retrospective nature of the data and high inter-study heterogeneity which demand caution in the interpretation of the outcomes.
