Post-stroke risk stratification in primary care: implications for occupational and preventive medicine.
Article in International journal of occupational medicine and environmental health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
objectivesAcute ischemic stroke stands as a significant contributor to high disability and mortality rates. Patient after stroke require vigilant supervision from general practitioners. Cardiovascular prevention emerges as a critical aspect. Physicians play a vital role in managing post-acute care and preventing secondary complications in patients with stroke after discharge. The aim of the study was to characterize and evaluate the cerebrovascular risk factors for stroke in patients under the care of general practitioners. MATERIAL AND
methodsData were collected from 277 patients after ischemic brain stroke under general practitioner care. Baseline demographic and clinical characteristics were gathered for all study participants.
resultsData were collected from 277 patients after ischemic brain stroke under general practitioner care. Baseline demographic and clinical characteristics were gathered for all study participants. Results: Gender distribution among the study cohort was 143 females (51.6%) aged mean (M) ± standard deviation (SD) 76.4±11.8 years and 134 males (48.4%), aged 78.5±11.9 years. Hypertension emerged as the most prevalent risk factor, affecting 75.8% of participants. Ischemic heart disease, lipid disorders, and atrial fibrillation, observed in 30.32%, 30.7%, and 29.6% of patients respectively. Diabetes mellitus was present in 23.1% of the cohort. The body weight was M±SD 76.9±16 kg, with BMI 27.6±6.6 kg/m
conclusionsThe authors' findings highlight the necessity for sex-specific approaches in stroke management, particularly considering the impact of comorbid conditions such as hypertension and atrial fibrillation on stroke outcomes. Despite the availability of general guidelines, it would be valuable to develop specific guidelines for general practitioners on ischemic stroke risk factors.
