1 · What the graph read from itWhat 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 registryThe trial behind it

6 · The paper itselfAbstract
backgroundIn young adults, the risk factors (RFs) for cryptogenic ischemic stroke (CIS) remain unclear. We aimed to investigate the association between recent mechanical venous thrombosis RFs (VTRFs) and young-onset CIS in this multicenter sex- and age-matched case-control study.
methodsFive hundred forty-six patients aged 18 to 49 years (median age, 41 [34-46] years; 47.3% women) with a recent CIS and 546 stroke-free community-based controls were included in the study across 19 European centers between October 2013 and November 2022. Mechanical VTRFs, including surgical treatment, nonsurgical intervention, injury, and immobilization occurring within 90 days prestroke, were assessed using standardized, structured interviews. Conditional logistic regression was used to assess the association of mechanical VTRFs with CIS. Age, sex, level of education, and traditional and nontraditional stroke RFs were included as confounders.
resultsMechanical VTRFs within 14 days prestroke were more prevalent in cases than controls (15.4% versus 9.6%) and independently associated with CIS after adjustment for demographics and traditional stroke RFs (odds ratio [OR], 1.67 [95% CI, 1.05-2.67]). In age-stratified analysis, this association remained significant after additional adjustment for nontraditional RFs in 18- to 39-year-olds (OR, 2.36 [95% CI, 1.02-5.46]) but was not significant in the 40- to 49-year age group (OR, 1.50 [95% CI, 0.73-3.08]). In addition, mechanical VTRFs were associated with CIS in cases with clinically relevant patent foramen ovale in a fully adjusted model (OR, 2.06 [95% CI, 1.21-3.51]) but not in those without (OR, 1.29 [95% CI, 0.76-2.18]). No significant associations were observed for mechanical VTRFs occurring >14 days before stroke. Baseline blood thrombophilia markers did not differ between cases with and without mechanical VTRFs 0 to 14 or 15 to 90 days before stroke.
conclusionsRecent mechanical VTRFs occurring within 14 days preceding stroke contribute to the risk of young-onset CIS, particularly in younger individuals and those with a clinically relevant patent foramen ovale. This risk does not appear to be conveyed by thrombophilic factors assessed. REGISTRATION: URL: https://www.clinicaltrials.gov; Unique identifier: NCT01934725.
