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
aimTo evaluate the relationship of early neurological deterioration (END) with admission glycemia (aG) and new stress hyperglycemia indexes in spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) patients.
methodsThe present retrospective study included 171 ICH patients from two stroke centers. END was defined as an increase ≥ 4 points in National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale and/or a decrease ≥ 2 points in Glasgow Coma Scale within 72 hours from admission. The included stress hyperglycemia indexes were glycemic gap (GGAP), stress hyperglycemia ratio (SHR), and glucose-glycated hemoglobin ratio. GGAP was calculated as aG - 28,7*glycated hemoglobin + 46,7; SHR as aG / (28,7*glycated hemoglobin - 46,7); Glucose-glycated hemoglobin ratio as aG / glycated hemoglobin. We performed univariate and multivariate analyses for END. The receiver operating characteristic curves were built for END-related glycemic measures; area under curves (AUC) were calculated and compared. The optimized threshold values were calculated, and significant glycemic measures were dichotomized. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed for the dichotomized measures.
resultsEND was present in 21 patients (12.3%) and was significantly associated with GGAP, SHR and glucose-glycated hemoglobin ratio, but not with aG. The AUC of the three stress hyperglycemia indexes did not differ significantly. The optimized cutoffs were 35.68 (sensitivity 0.47, specificity 0.81), 1.15 (sensitivity 0.62, specificity 0.68), and 26.67(sensitivity 0.43, specificity 0.80) for GGAP, SHR, and glucose-glycated hemoglobin ratio respectively. END was also associated with all stress hyperglycemia indexes expressed as categorical variables.
conclusionGGAP, SHR, and glucose-glycated hemoglobin ratio were predictors of END in ICH patients.
