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

BACKGROUND AND

aimsAlterations in glymphatic function during the acute phase of acute spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (sICH) remain poorly understood. The aim of this study was to investigate whether, compared to healthy controls (HCs), the glymphatic system is impaired in patients with sICH, and to assess its association with hemorrhage and edema severity and outcome.

methodsFifty-five sICH patients (including 46 supratentorial sICH and 9

resultssICH patients showed significantly lower DTI-ALPS values on the ipsilateral side compared to the average in the HC group (1.34 ± 0.24 vs. 1.46 ± 0.22, p = 0.003), whereas contralateral DTI-ALPS values in sICH patients did not differ significantly from HCs (1.48 ± 0.21 vs. 1.46 ± 0.22, p = 0.524). The ipsilateral DTI-ALPS was notably associated with both hemorrhage and relative edema volumes (both p < 0.05). A higher ipsilateral DTI-ALPS was independently associated with a favorable outcome at 90 days (odds ratio = 1.686 per 0.1 increase, p = 0.038).

conclusionsThe DTI-ALPS index, which reflects glymphatic functionality, is notably diminished on the ipsilateral side in acute sICH, correlating significantly with increased volumes of hemorrhage and edema. This study suggests that glymphatic dysfunction may contribute to the severity of clinical outcomes, and highlights the potential role of the glymphatic system in the pathophysiology of sICH.
