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 screening examination for arrhythmias in patients with chronic noncardioembolic ischemic stroke is limited. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of arrhythmia in patients with chronic noncardioembolic ischemic stroke using a stick-on wearable device. Materials and Methods: This was a prospective observational study conducted between July 2020 and February 2022 involving 176 patients with a history of noncardioembolic ischemic stroke. Patients receiving anticoagulant therapy were excluded. For the evaluation of arrhythmias, the patients wore a stick-on wearable device for a maximum of approximately 7 days. We investigated the prevalence of arrhythmia and its associated factors. Results: The mean measurement time was 121.3 ± 45.3 hours. Atrial fibrillation was present in 2 (1.1%) patients, frequent premature atrial contractions (PACs) in 69 (39.2%), and frequent premature ventricular contractions (PVCs) in 36 (20.5%). Regression analysis showed that the risk factors independently associated with frequent PACs were age (odds ratio [OR] 1.103, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.055-1.153; Conclusion: The prevalence of frequent PVCs is higher in patients with chronic noncardioembolic ischemic stroke than in the general population. The stick-on wearable device is a useful screening tool for arrhythmia in patients with chronic noncardioembolic ischemic stroke.
