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

Introduction: Acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients often experience poor functional outcomes post-intravenous thrombolysis (IVT). Novel computational methods leveraging machine learning (ML) architectures increasingly support medical decision-making. We aimed to develop and validate a machine learning model to predict 3-month unfavorable functional outcome after IVT in AIS patients. Methods: This retrospective study developed ML prognostic models for 3-month functional outcome (modified Rankin scale scores of 3-6) in IVT-treated AIS patients. A derivation cohort ( Results: 938 patients constituted the derivation cohort (training: Conclusion: A parsimonious 5-variable LR model robustly predicts 3-month post-IVT outcomes, combining clinical utility, interpretability, and generalizability. NLR-driven inflammation is critical to prognosis. This tool facilitates early high-risk patient identification for personalized intervention.
