Factors influencing the occurrence of ischemic stroke in elderly patients with hypertension and type 2 diabetes mellitus: a 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
objectiveTo investigate the risk factors for ischemic stroke in elderly patients with hypertension and type 2 diabetes mellitus.
methodsA total of 112 elderly patients with hypertension and type 2 diabetes, treated at Jiangmen Central Hospital from January 2023 to December 2023, were selected and categorized into a stroke group and a non-stroke group, each comprising 56 patients. The two groups were examined for demographic data, risk variables were evaluated by multifactorial logistic regression analysis, and the predictive value was determined using ROC curves.
resultsThe comparison of hyperhomocysteinemia (HHcy), fibrinogen (FIB), and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) between the non-stroke and stroke groups revealed statistically significant differences (P < 0.05). Logistic regression analysis indicated that HHcy (OR 16.936; 95% CI 1.946-146.071; P = 0.010), FIB (OR 1.773; 95% CI 1.238-2.540; P = 0.002), and HDL-C (OR 0.182; 95% CI 0.043-0.775; P = 0.021) were significant factors in the onset of ischemic stroke among elderly patients with hypertension and type 2 diabetes. ROC curve analysis revealed that the area under the curve (AUC) for FIB, HDL-C, and HHcy in diagnosing stroke associated with hypertension and type 2 diabetes mellitus in the elderly were 0.704, 0.640, and 0.598, respectively, while the AUC for the combined diagnosis of all three was 0.784.
conclusionsHHcy, FIB, and HDL-C independently influence the occurrence of ischemic stroke in elderly patients with hypertension combined with type 2 diabetes mellitus, and their combined enhanced predictive capability for ischemic stroke occurrence.
