1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

objectiveThis study aimed to investigate the relationship between the unique weather change and acute ischemic stroke (AIS) in the southern Zhejiang Province of China and to provide evidence for better predicting and preventing stroke.

methodsWe retrospectively collected 14,996 ischemic stroke patients data and weather data from January 2019 to December 2021 in the southern Zhejiang Province of China. The correlation and risk between meteorological factors and the number of AIS daily cases were calculated. Wilcoxon rank sum test was used to calculate the difference in the number of cases between typhoon-affected and non-affected periods. A prediction model obeying Poisson regression was established, and the accuracy of the correlation factors in predicting the number of cases was verified.

resultsIn southern Zhejiang Province, the number of AIS was the highest in summer and the lowest in spring. Stroke onset is associated with temperature, water vapor pressure and typhoons (P < 0.05). The presence of typhoon (RR 0.882; 95% CI 0.834 to 0.933, P < 0.001) was a protective factor, while maximum temperature (RR 1.021; 95% CI 1.008 to 1.033, P = 0.043) and the water vapor pressure (RR 1.036; 95% CI 1.006 to 1.067, P = 0.036) were risk factors. The occurrence under the influence of typhoons was lower than that without the influence of typhoons (P < 0.05). The prediction model can predict the occurrence of stroke.

conclusionAn association was observed between the occurrence of AIS, temperature, water vapor pressure and typhoon in the southern Zhejiang Province of China. Typhoon occurrence was associated with fewer cases. The predictive model may help high-risk populations prevent diseases early and assist hospitals in allocating resources promptly.
