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: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is an important risk factor for ischemic stroke. However, the prognostic impact of acute atrial fibrillation (AAF) at the onset of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) remains unclear. Methods: This retrospective study categorized 417 patients with AIS into the AAF ( Results: The AAF group demonstrated significantly worse outcomes than the other AF and non-AF groups. In the multivariable analysis, AAF was identified as an independent risk predictor for severe 7-day neurological deficit [odds ratio (OR): 10.09; 95% CI: 3.87-27.36; Conclusions: AAF at the onset of AIS is an independent risk predictor for early neurological deterioration and short-term mortality, establishing it as a crucial prognostic indicator that warrants vigilant management.
