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

Objective: To explore the effect of clopidogrel combined with aspirin in the treatment of acute progressive cerebral infarction (APCI). Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the records of 190 patients with APCI admitted to Chengdu First People's Hospital from September 2020 to April 2023. The records were divided into an aspirin group (76 cases), a clopidogrel group (72 cases), and a clopidogrel plus aspirin group (42 cases) according to the treatment records. We compared the efficacy of the three treatment outcomes by analyzing the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) scores, and the levels of serum inflammatory factors (IL-8, TNF-α, and IL-1β), cone like protein-1 (VILIP-1), and caveolin-1 (Cav-1). Results: The total efficacy of the combination group (97.62%) was significantly higher than those of the aspirin group (73.68%) or the clopidogrel group (79.17%) ( Conclusions: Our results indicate that compared with aspirin alone or clopidogrel alone, the combination of aspirin and clopidogrel is more effective for the treatment of APCI. The combination regimen effectively lowers serum inflammatory factors (IL-8, TNF-α, and IL-1β), as well as the VILIP-1 and Cav-1 levels.
