Prevalence of Concomitant Neurological Disorders and Long-Term Outcome of Patients Hospitalized for Intracerebral Hemorrhage with Versus without Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy.
Observational study in Neurocritical care, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundPatients with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) related to cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) are at increased risk of developing epilepsy and cognitive disorders such as Alzheimer's disease (AD), mild cognitive impairment (MCI), and vascular dementia. In a retrospective cohort observation study of patients hospitalized for ICH with CAA versus ICH without CAA, we evaluated the prevalence of neurological comorbidities at admission and the risk of new diagnosis of epilepsy, relevant cognitive disorders, and mortality at 1 year.
methodsIn the TriNetX health research network, adult patients aged ≥ 55 years hospitalized with a diagnosis of ICH were stratified based on presence or absence of concomitant CAA diagnosis. Demographics and medical comorbidities were compared by using χ
resultsThe study included a total of 1757 patients with ICH and CAA and 53,364 patients with ICH without CAA. Patients with CAA were older compared with those without CAA (74.1 ± 7.5 vs. 69.8 ± 8.8 years, p ≤ 0.001). Compared with ICH without CAA, patients with ICH and CAA had higher baseline prevalence of cerebral infarction (30% vs. 20%), nontraumatic ICH (36% vs. 7%), nontraumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage (14% vs. 5%), epilepsy (11% vs. 6%), and AD (5% vs. 2%) with significance at p < 0.001. After propensity score matching, a total of 1746 patients were included in both cohorts. In the matched cohorts, compared with patients with ICH without CAA, patients with ICH and CAA had lower 1-year all-cause mortality (479 [27%] vs. 563 [32%]; hazard ratio [HR] 0.80; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.71-0.90) and higher risk of new diagnosis of epilepsy (280 [18%] vs. 167 [11%]; HR 1.70; 95% CI 1.40-2.06), AD (101 [6%] vs. 38 [2%]; HR 2.62; 95% CI 1.80-3.80), MCI (85 [5%] vs. 35 [2%]; HR 2.39; 95% CI 1.61-3.54), vascular dementia (117 [7%] vs. 60 [4%]; HR 1.92; 95% CI 1.41-2.62), and dementia unspecified (245 [16%] vs. 150 [9%]; HR 1.70; 95% CI 1.39-2.08).
conclusionsAmong patients admitted for ICH, patients with CAA have lower mortality but have 2-3 times more risk of diagnosis of epilepsy and dementia at 1 year, compared with those without CAA.
