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

Introduction: While understudied, wake-up intracerebral hemorrhage (WU-ICH) is not uncommon (8.8-20.3% of ICH patients). Since the risk of hematoma expansion (HE) decreases as time passes, an uncertain onset time in WU-ICH may influence the risk of in-hospital HE and the potential effects of HE-preventive treatments. We aimed to evaluate HE and outcomes in WU-ICH compared to known-onset ICH. Methods: We included ICH patients admitted to the Karolinska University Hospital from 2016 to 2022, comparing WU-ICH vs. known-onset ICH regarding baseline characteristics, HE, and outcomes. Results: Of 763 patients, 147 (19%) had WU-ICH and 616 (81%) had known onset, median (IQR) last-known-well to hospital time 9.6 h (5.9-12.2 h) vs. 1.3 h (0.9-2.0 h). WU-ICH patients more often had dementia (15% vs. 5%, Conclusion: WU-ICH had a similar risk of HE and similar 3-month outcomes as known-onset ICH. Excluding WU-ICH from future trials targeting HE may be unwarranted.
