Impact of Concurrent Ischaemic Stroke on Unfavourable Outcomes in Men and Women with Dilated Cardiomyopathy.
Article in Reviews in cardiovascular medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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: Growing evidence suggests that concurrent ischaemic stroke (IS) exacerbates the prognosis of patients with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) and that this effect may be further influenced by sex. However, the exact effect of sex remains unclear. This study aimed to explore the effects of the relevant risk factors on the prognosis of patients with DCM and concurrent IS. Considering the sex differences in DCM, this study further investigated the impact of concurrent IS on the prognosis of men and women with DCM. Methods: A total of 632 patients with DCM enrolled between 2016 and 2021 were included in this study. Clinical data were obtained from medical records, and all participants were followed up in the outpatient clinic or by telephone for at least 1 year. A Cox proportional hazards model and Kaplan-Meier curves were used to evaluate the effects of concurrent IS on the prognosis of patients with DCM. Results: Patients with DCM complicated with IS (DCM-IS) had significantly lower cumulative survival rates than patients with DCM without IS (non-IS) (74.6% vs. 84.2%, Conclusions: This large-scale multicentre prospective cohort study demonstrated a poorer prognosis in patients with concurrent DCM and IS, particularly among men. Patients with DCM should not be overlooked in IS screening, emphasis should be placed on the occurrence of IS in patients with DCM. Early and proactive secondary prevention of cerebrovascular diseases might improve the prognosis of DCM patients. More intervention studies focusing on men with DCM complicated with IS should be prioritised.
