Cerebral protection by remote ischemic post-conditioning in patients with ischemic stroke: A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials.

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
Background: There is evidence that remote limb ischemic postconditioning (RIPostC) can reduce ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) and improve the prognosis of patients with ischemic stroke. However, so far, only few relevant clinical studies have been conducted. Therefore, we carried out a meta-analysis of eligible randomized controlled trials to compare the RIPostC group with a control group (no intervention or sham surgery) in patients with ischemic stroke. Methods: Four English-language publication databases, PubMed, Cochrane, Embase, and Web of Science, were systematically searched up to March 2022. The data were analyzed using Review Manager fixed-effects and random-effects models. Results: A total of 12 studies were included, and 11 of those were analyzed quantitatively. Compared to controls, The RIPostC group showed significantly reduced NIHHS scores in patients with ischemic stroke, (MD: -1.09, 95% confidence interval [CI]: -1.60, -0.57, Conclusion: Our meta-analysis showed that RIPostC is safe and effective and has a positive cerebral protective effect in patients with ischemic stroke, which is safe and effective, and future large-sample, multicenter trials are needed to validate the cerebral protective effect of RIPostC.
