Association between family support and 6-months functional recovery in acute ischemic stroke patients: a prospective cohort study.

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
Aims: Stroke is a leading cause of disability and death worldwide, with family support playing a pivotal role in the recovery process. This study aimed to evaluate the association between family support levels and the short-term functional prognosis of patients with acute ischemic stroke. Materials and methods: A total of 124 patients admitted to the Department of Neurology at Second People's Hospital of Neijiang were included, with an average age of 68 years. Family support was assessed by the Family Support Questionnaire (FSQ) and the Family APGAR Questionnaire. The primary outcome was functional independence, defined as a Modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score of 0-2, assessed 6 months after discharge. Secondary outcomes included lifestyle behaviors and medication adherence. Multivariate logistic and linear regression were used to analyze the association between family support and functional independence. Results: Compared to patients with FSQ of 0-5, FSQ of 10-15 were significantly associated with greater functional independence (OR: 1.666, 95% CI 1.236-2.214, Conclusion: The study concludes family support is positively associated with functional recovery and medication adherence, further studies are needed to clarify whether improved medication adherence mediates this association.
