Risk factors of post-stroke epilepsy among pediatric population: a systematic review.

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
Epilepsy is a frequent complication observed among stroke survivors. Post-stroke epilepsy (PSE) is defined as the occurrence of at least two unprovoked seizures beyond 2 weeks of an acute stroke that are not due to any other identifiable cause. PSE constitutes a significant clinical concern in pediatric stroke patients, adversely affecting both short-term and long-term management outcomes. This systematic review aimed to identify patient-related, stroke-related, and seizure-related risk factors associated with the development of PSE in the pediatric population. We included all clinical studies that compared these variables between pediatric stroke patients who developed PSE and those who did not. Studies reporting potential predictors of PSE among children with stroke were incorporated into the analysis. A total of 16 studies comprising 3,198 patients were included. The pooled risk of PSE was 27.6%, with a 95% confidence interval ranging from 19.8 to 37.2% (
