Registry of Stroke in Korean Medicine Hospital (RoS-KoMH): Protocol for a Prospective, Multicenter, Observational Study.
Article in JMIR research protocols, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundCurrently, conventional medicine for stroke treatment remains at a standstill. Korean medicine (KM), which is in high demand in Korea, has been shown to have a therapeutic effect on stroke; however, considering the absence of epidemiological and clinical characteristics of patients receiving KM for stroke in Korea and prospective, large-scale, long-term studies on the efficacy and safety of KM, the acquisition of data from KM treatments on stroke is essential.
objectiveWe aimed to collect and analyze data on the major clinical characteristics of patients with stroke receiving KM treatment and investigate the effectiveness and safety of KM in the Korean population.
methodsThe Registry of Stroke in Korean Medicine Hospital (RoS-KoMH) is a prospective, multicenter, observational disease registry aimed at collecting data from 500 sets of patients at multiple timepoints. Eligible adult patients diagnosed with cerebral infarction, cerebral hemorrhage, or subarachnoid hemorrhage who visited 4 KM hospitals as outpatients or inpatients will be continuously registered using the electronic case report form. Baseline data at the first visit; KM treatment, rehabilitation therapy, and concomitant therapy during the visit; stroke evaluation every 4 weeks after the first visit; laboratory findings at discharge or the last visit; and safety evaluation information after each acupuncture or pharmacopuncture treatment will be collected.
resultsThe study was funded on August 19, 2020, by the Ministry of Health and Welfare, Republic of Korea, and recruitment for the study started on November 3, 2021. As of September 25, 2024, a total of 410 participants have been recruited.
conclusionsThe RoS-KoMH study is the first and largest multicenter, prospective registry to record comprehensive data on KM treatment of stroke. The results of this study will provide high-quality evidence on the current state of stroke treatment using KM in actual clinical practice, as well as treatment effectiveness and safety, and will consequently contribute to the promotion and standardization of therapeutic interventions for stroke in Korea.
