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

backgroundThis study aimed to investigate the relationship between baseline blood pressure (BP) and clinical outcomes after thrombolysis for acute ischemic stroke (AIS) in different intracranial arterial stenosis subgroups.

methodsAIS patients from multicenter with intravenous thrombolysis were retrospectively enrolled from January 2013 to December 2021. We categorized participants into severe (≥ 70%) and nonsevere (< 70%) stenosis of major intracranial arteries subgroups. The primary outcome was unfavorable functional outcome defined as 3-month modified Rankin Scale (mRS) ≥2. The association coefficients between baseline BP and functional outcomes were estimated in general linear regression model. The interactive effect was tested to determine the influence of intracranial arterial stenosis on the association between BP and clinical outcomes.

resultsA total of 329 patients were included. Severe subgroup was detected in 151 patients with average age of 70.5. Association between baseline diastolic BP (DBP) and unfavorable functional outcome in intracranial artery stenosis subgroups was significantly different (p for interaction < .05). In nonsevere subgroup, higher baseline DBP was associated with higher risk of unfavorable outcome (OR 1.11, 95% CI 1.03 to 1.20, p = .009) compared with severe subgroup (OR 1.02, 95% CI 0.97 to 1.08, p = .341). Besides, intracranial artery stenosis also modified association between baseline systolic BP (SBP) and 3-month death (p for interaction < .05). In severe subgroup, higher baseline SBP was associated with decreased 3-month death risk (OR 0.88, 95% CI 0.78 to 1, p = .044) compared with nonsevere subgroup (OR 1, 95% CI 0.93 to 1.07, p = .908).

conclusionsThe major intracranial artery state modulates association between baseline BP and 3-month clinical outcomes after intravenous thrombolysis.
