Epidemiological and Clinical Characteristics of Acute Stroke in a Multi-Ethnic South Asian Population.
Article in Neurology international, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
objectiveStroke is one of the leading causes of death and disability worldwide. Compared to developed countries, the prognosis of stroke is less favourable in developing countries. The objective of this study is to identify inter-ethnic variation in risk profiles and stroke outcomes amongst Bangladeshi, Indian, Nepalese, Pakistani, and Sri Lankan expatriates living in Qatar.
methodsData from the Qatar Stroke Registry were retrospectively analyzed from April 2014 to June 2025. A total of 8825 patients were included. The chi-square test was used to analyze sociodemographic variables, while the Kruskal-Wallis test was used to analyze continuous variables. Post hoc analysis was performed. Multivariate logistic regression and multivariate multiple regression were used to identify the predictors associated with poor clinical outcomes and mortality at 90 days.
resultsIschemic stroke was the predominant stroke type in all groups, with Nepalese patients presenting with stroke at a younger age, whilst Pakistanis tended to be older (
conclusionsThere was a significant variation in stroke presentation and outcomes among South Asian subpopulations in Qatar, suggesting the importance of tailored public health strategies as a uniform approach to stroke care is insufficient for this diverse population.
