Spontaneous Intracerebral Hemorrhage in young patients from a Comprehensive Stroke Care Unit in MENA region, Hospital Based Study.
Article in BMC neurology, 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
introductionFew studies have been reported on ICH in young age patients at Middle East and North Africa region (MENA). It is thought that epidemiological, radiological characteristics, and neurological outcomes differ in young age patients from those of the elderly. Our study’s aim is detection of the difference between them as regard clinic-radiological characters, functional outcome, and its predictors.
methodsAll patients with spontaneous ICH were divided into two groups, young adults (≤ 50 years) and old adults group (> 50 years). All clinic-radiological data were collected. The patients were classified into four categories (probable CAA, Hypertensive, Vascular and Undetermined). One-month mortality and functional outcome (using mRS) were determined. Multivariate logistic regression was performed to determine the predictors of favorable functional outcome.
resultsProspective study was conducted on 300 patients, 91 patients of them were young (30.3%). Hypertension, Diabetes mellitus, Hyperlipidemia, previous CVS, higher NIHSS, lower GCS and previous medications of antiplatelet or anticoagulant were more common in old age group with statistically significant difference (P value: <0.001, < 0.001, < 0.001, 0.006, < 0.001, < 0.001 and < 0.001, respectively). Vascular cause and undetermined cause were more in young age. Young group had better outcome as regard functional outcome and one-month mortality (74.7% versus 35.9% with p value: <0.001, 8.8% versus 28.7% with p value: <0.001, respectively). GCS and NIHSS are predictors of functional outcome.
conclusionSpontaneous ICH in young adults has different demographic, clinical and radiological findings with better One-month mortality and favorable functional outcome. GCS and NIHSS are predictors of functional outcome.
