Global Pediatric Stroke Epidemiology: A Systematic Review of the Literature and Meta-Analysis.
Synthesis in Journal of child neurology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The global burden of stroke in children is poorly characterized. We aimed to quantify the global burden of pediatric stroke. A systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted in accordance with Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. The estimated birth prevalence and incidence of perinatal and overall childhood stroke was used to calculate the worldwide stroke burden by World Bank Income Groups and World Health Organization (WHO) regions. The estimated birth prevalence of perinatal stroke (regardless of type) was 21.01 per 100 000 total births and estimated childhood incidence of stroke was 3.73 per 100 000 person-years. The childhood incidence of ischemic stroke and hemorrhagic stroke was 1.30 per 100 000 person-years and 0.99 per 100 000 person-years, respectively. There is a relatively greater burden of perinatal stroke birth prevalence. Epidemiologic data on pediatric stroke is concentrated in western HIC. Coordinated efforts are needed to better understand the burden of pediatric stroke in LMIC.
