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

Stroke is the second leading cause of death globally. Oxidative stress plays a critical role in the development of stroke. The Oxidative Balance Score (OBS) is a tool used to assess the combined impact of diet and lifestyle on the body's antioxidant capacity. The study included stroke survivors from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (1999-2018), with a total of 1,781 participants and a median follow-up duration of 6.5 years, during which 786 participants (39.59%) died. The relationship between OBS and all-cause mortality was assessed using the Cox proportional hazards model. The results indicated that individuals in higher OBS quartiles had lower mortality rates. Specifically, patients in the fourth quartile had a 41% reduced risk of all-cause mortality compared to those in the first quartile (HR = 0.59, 95% CI = 0.42-0.84, p = 0.003). Restricted cubic spline analysis revealed a linear inverse relationship between OBS and all-cause mortality. Subgroup analysis further demonstrated that the inverse association persisted across various population subgroups. Overall, our study suggests that higher levels of OBS can reduce the risk of all-cause mortality in stroke survivors and provides new evidence for their diet and lifestyle.
