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

objectiveTo analyze clinical and sociodemographic factors associated with functional disability in people with ischemic stroke (IS) between 2 and 3 years after the event.

methodProspective cohort with 241 participants. Instruments for sociodemographic and clinical characterization, the Rankin-m Scale, and a telephone call protocol were used. Data were analyzed using Pearson's Chi-square or Fisher's Exact tests and a robust Poisson model, with a significance level of 5%.

resultsOf the participants, 62.6% had a Rankin of 0 to 2. Multivariate analysis showed that greater neurological deficit (6-13 and ≥14) was 2.35 (95% CI 1.13;4.05) and 4.4 (95% CI 2.09;6.83) times more associated with moderate to severe disability; failure to perform thrombolysis and ischemic stroke recurrence were, respectively, 3.02 (95% CI: 1.32;3.74) and 3.82 times (95% CI: 1.49;3.47) more associated with moderate to severe disability.

conclusionThe event impacted functional capacity, with greater neurological deficit, non-performance of thrombolysis, and stroke recurrence as the main predictors of disability. Strategies such as expanded thrombolysis, early care, ongoing rehabilitation, and risk factor control can reduce disability.
