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

Objectives: The relationship between hyperuricemia (HUA) and stroke remains controversial. In this systematic review, we discuss the association between HUA and stroke. Materials and methods: The PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library were searched from their earliest records to March 13 Results: A total of 22 studies including 770,532 adults were eligible and included. Hyperuricemia was associated with a significantly increasing risk of both stroke incidence (pooled RR, 1.42; 95% CI, 1.31-1.53) and stroke mortality (pooled RR, 1.53; 95% CI, 1.18-1.99) in our meta-analyses. Relative risk of stroke incidence was as follows: females (pooled RR, 1.67; 95% CI, 1.44-1.92) and males (pooled RR, 1.13; 95% CI, 1.02-1.25). Relative risk of mortality was as follows: female (pooled RR, 1.41; 95% CI, 1.31-1.52) and males (pooled RR, 1.27; 95% CI, 1.20-1.34). For the risk of stroke mortality, the association between HUA and ischemic stroke (pooled RR, 1.39; 95% CI, 1.31-1.47) was more significant than that of hemorrhagic stroke (pooled RR, 1.13; 95% CI, 1.02-1.26). Conclusion: Our study confirms an association between HUA and risk of stroke, which is more pronounced in females.
