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

aimD-dimer, lipoprotein (a) (Lp(a)), and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) are known predictors of vascular events; however, their impact on the stroke prognosis is unclear. This study used data from the Third China National Stroke Registry (CNSR-III) to assess their combined effect on functional disability and mortality after acute ischemic stroke (AIS).

methodsIn total, 9,450 adult patients with AIS were enrolled between August 2015 and March 2018. Patients were categorized based on a cutoff value for D-dimer, Lp(a), and hs-CRP in the plasma. Adverse outcomes included poor functional outcomes (modified Rankin Scale (mRS score ≥ 3)) and one- year all-cause mortality. Logistic and multivariate Cox regression analyses were performed to investigate the relationship between individual and combined biomarkers and adverse outcomes.

resultsPatients with elevated levels of all three biomarkers had the highest odds of functional disability (OR adjusted: 2.01; 95% CI (1.47-2.74); P<0.001) and mortality (HR adjusted: 2.93; 95% CI (1.55-5.33); P<0.001). The combined biomarkers improved the predictive accuracy for disability (C-statistic 0.80 vs.0.79, P<0.001) and mortality (C-statistic 0.79 vs.0.78, P=0.01).

conclusionElevated D-dimer, Lp(a), and hs-CRP levels together increase the risk of functional disability and mortality one-year post-AIS more than any single biomarker.
