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

backgroundIntracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is the most serious type of stroke, and dizziness may be the sole presenting symptom of ICH. However, the prognosis of ICH patients presenting with dizziness remains unclear.

objectivesThis study aims to fill this gap by determining the prevalence of dizziness in patients with ICH, identifying the locations of associated hemorrhages, and evaluating its prognostic significance.

methodsWe enrolled patients with ICH from two stroke centers between January 2016 and May 2024, collecting demographic, clinical, and imaging data. The 90-day modified Rankin Scale (mRS) distributions were used to evaluate clinical outcomes in ICH patients presenting with dizziness. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was performed to investigate correlation between dizziness and excellent outcome in ICH.

resultsA total of 1718 patients who met the inclusion criteria were analyzed, including 165 ICH patients presenting with dizziness (9.6%). Multivariable logistic regression analysis demonstrated that, dizziness was an independent predictor of excellent outcomes at 90 days after adjusting for confounders in patients with ICH (adjusted OR, 2.118; 95% CI, 1.343-3.340; P = 0.001). The presence of infratentorial ICH, and intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) on the baseline CT scan were significantly correlated with presence of dizziness (adjusted OR, 6.286; 95% CI, 4.237-9.324; P < 0.001; adjusted OR, 2.061; 95% CI, 1.382-3.071; P < 0.001, respectively).

conclusionDizziness was not uncommon in patients with ICH and was an independent predictor of excellent functional outcomes at 90 days. Additionally, in ICH patients, dizziness was associated with infratentorial ICH and the presence of IVH on baseline CT imaging. These findings provide more evidence in risk stratification in ICH management.
