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

In an era of time-dependent reperfusion and recanalization therapy for stroke leading to improved survival, there is a growing population at risk of poststroke epilepsy (PSE). Accumulating evidence suggests a multidirectional interaction among stroke, PSE, and dementia in stroke survivors. There is no evidence to justify prophylactic antiseizure medication (ASM) to reduce these morbidities. Although several predictive molecular biomarkers and scoring models have been proposed, they remain inadequately validated for stratifying risk and indicating who will benefit from prophylactic ASM. Studies leveraging advances in genetics, metabolomics, electrophysiology, imaging, and artificial intelligence (AI) may help to discover noninvasive molecular biomarkers and easy-to-score models. These discoveries should improve our understanding of epileptogenesis in PSE and identify new pharmacologic targets. Besides, accurately identifying high-risk patients and timely initiating prophylactic ASM therapy has the potential to disrupt the feed-forward multidirectional interaction among stroke, PSE, and dementia.
