1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Background: Updated data on stroke mortality covering the period of the COVID-19 pandemic are needed. Therefore, this study analyzed the temporal trend of stroke mortality among adults in Paraná State, southern Brazil, between 2000 and 2021. Methods: A time series study was conducted using secondary data from adults. Joinpoint regression calculated the average annual percentage change (AAPC) and annual percentage change (APC) of mortality rate and proportional mortality from stroke. Results: There was a decrease in the time trend of mortality rate (AAPC: -2.1; Conclusions: There was a reduction in the mortality rate and proportional mortality from stroke among adults aged 20 years and older. During the COVID-19 pandemic, a sharp decline occurred in the proportion of stroke deaths among all-cause deaths.
