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 and purpose: Nationwide data on childhood stroke prevalence and incidence in Mainland China are unavailable now. We aim to investigate the prevalence and incidence of childhood arterial ischaemic stroke and haemorrhagic stroke in China nationwide. Methods: In 2013, we implemented a nationally representative, door-to-door epidemiological survey on stroke in China through a complex, multistage, probability sampling design. A post-hoc subgroup analysis was conducted to examine both the crude point prevalence and annual incidence of childhood stroke. Due to the small case number, the Poisson distribution was used to estimate the 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for the crude rates. Results: In this survey, only 4 strokes were identified. The crude point prevalence of childhood stroke was 4.82 (95% CI: 1.31-12.34) per 100 000 children in China; 4.51 (95% CI: 0.55-16.29) per 100 000 boys, and 5.17 (95% CI: 0.63-18.69) per 100 000 girls. Haemorrhagic stroke prevalence was 3.61 (95% CI: 0.75-10.56) vs 1.20 (95% CI: 0.03-6.71) per 100 000 children for arterial ischaemic stroke. The crude annual incidence of childhood stroke was 2.34 (95% CI: 0.28-8.45) per 100 000 children in China; 5.01 (95% CI: 0.60-18.10) per 100 000 girls. The crude annual incidences of both arterial ischaemic stroke and intracerebral haemorrhage were the same at 1.17 (95% CI: 0.03-6.52) per 100 000 children. Conclusions: The point prevalence and annual incidence estimates of childhood stroke were 4.82 and 2.34 per 100 000 children in China, respectively. Chinese children may have more prevalent cases of haemorrhagic than arterial ischaemic strokes.
