Associations between semi-quantitative evaluation of intracranial arterial calcification and total cerebral small vessel disease burden score: a retrospective case-control study.

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 and purpose: Arteriosclerotic cerebral small vessel disease (aCSVD) is a cause of cognitive impairment, dementia, and stroke. Developing a better understanding of the risk factor of aCSVD is key to reducing the incidence of these conditions. This study investigated the association between intracranial arterial calcification (IAC) and total cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) burden score. Materials and methods: This is a retrospective study, the subjects were transient ischemic attack (TIA) or acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients. The data of 303 inpatients admitted to our study hospital between December 2018 and July 2020 were analyzed. Four imaging markers of CSVD (lacunes, white matter hyperintensities, cerebral microbleeds, and enlarged perivascular spaces) were evaluated by magnetic resonance imaging, and a total CSVD burden score was calculated. The experimental group was divided into four subgroups according to total CSVD burden score (1-4 points). Patients without CSVD (0 points) served as the control group. Head computerized tomography (CT) scans were used to assess ICA, using Babiarz's method. The correlations between IAC and single imaging markers of CSVD were determined using Spearman's rank correlation. Binary logic regression analysis and multivariate ordered logic regression analysis were used to determine the associations between IAC and aCSVD. Results: IAC was positively correlated with total CSVD burden score ( Conclusion: IAC is associated with the total CSVD burden score and single imaging signs.
