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 remains a leading cause of death and disability worldwide. Recent evidence suggests that stroke pathophysiology extends beyond vascular dysfunction to include complex interactions within the neurovascular unit (NVU), particularly involving fibrinogen. This blood-derived protein accumulates in the brain following blood-brain barrier (BBB) disruption and plays crucial roles in neuroinflammation and tissue repair. Through its unique structural domains, fibrinogen interacts with multiple cellular components, including astrocytes, microglia, and neural stem cells, thereby modulating inflammatory responses and neural repair mechanisms. This review examines fibrinogen's structure and its diverse functions in stroke pathophysiology, focusing on its interactions with vascular cells, glial cells, and peripheral immune cells. We also discuss emerging therapeutic strategies targeting fibrinogen-mediated pathways and the challenge of translating experimental results into effective clinical treatments.
