Pathomechanisms and Treatment Implications for Stroke in COVID-19: A Review of the Literature.
Review in Life (Basel, Switzerland), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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
Stroke in patients with COVID-19 has received increasing attention throughout the global COVID-19 pandemic, perhaps due to the substantial disability and mortality that can result when the two conditions co-occur. We reviewed the existing literature and found that the proposed pathomechanism underlying COVID-19-associated ischemic stroke is broadly divided into the following three categories: vasculitis, endothelialitis, and endothelial dysfunction; hypercoagulable state; and cardioembolism secondary to cardiac dysfunction. There has been substantial debate as to whether there is a causal link between stroke and COVID-19. However, the distinct phenotype of COVID-19-associated strokes, with multivessel territory infarcts, higher proportion of large vessel occlusions, and cryptogenic stroke mechanism, that emerged in pooled analytic comparisons with non-COVID-19 strokes is compelling. Further, in this article, we review the various treatment approaches that have emerged as they relate to the proposed pathomechanisms. Finally, we briefly cover the logistical challenges, such as delays in treatment, faced by providers and health systems; the innovative approaches utilized, including the role of tele-stroke; and the future directions in COVID-19-associated stroke research and healthcare delivery.
