Electrocardiogram markers predicting ischemic stroke after acute coronary syndrome.

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
Background: Patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) have increased risk of ischemic stroke (IS). Our aim was to screen for significant electrocardiogram (ECG) features for IS risk in patients treated for acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Methods: This retrospective registry study is based on 7760 ACS patients treated in Tays Heart Hospital (2007-2018) with follow-up for incident IS until December 31st Results: From 7760 patients, 489 (6.3 %) suffered IS during a median follow-up of 5.7 years (IQR 3.1-8.8). In the final multivariable model, the main risk factors were premature ventricular complexes (PVCs) or aberrantly conducted complexes in AF/AFL (SDH, 2.01 [1.22-3.31]), left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy (LVH) by Sokolow-Lyon criteria (SDH, 1.52 [1.12-2.06]), S wave amplitude in lead V4 (SDH, 1.13 [1.05-1.21]) and negative P wave peak time in lead V2 (SDH, 1.12 [1.02-1.23]). T wave amplitude in lead V6 (SDH, 0.78 [0.69-0.88]) and T wave duration in lead aVL (SDH, 0.85 [0.78-0.92]) showed an inverse association with IS risk. The continuous variables correspond to 1 SD. Conclusions: ECG markers demonstrating LV dysfunction, LVH and atriopathy associate with IS risk after ACS, although external validation is still required.
