Dysphagia in patients with severe stroke: influencing factors and coping strategies.
Article in Frontiers in neurology. 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
Background: Dysphagia is a common and serious complication in patients with severe stroke. This study aimed to identify independent risk factors for dysphagia in this population, construct a predictive model, and provide evidence-based support for risk stratification. Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted on patients with severe stroke admitted to the Neurointensive Care Unit (NICU) of a Grade A tertiary hospital from January 2023 to August 2025. Patients were divided into a dysphagia group ( Results: Among 358 patients with severe stroke, the incidence of dysphagia was 80.45%. Logistic regression identified age ≥70 years (OR = 6.452, 95%CI: 3.825-10.936), brainstem/basal ganglia lesion location (OR = 4.608, 95%CI: 2.751-7.723), GCS score ≤8 points (OR = 8.654, 95%CI: 5.012-14.928), mechanical ventilation use (OR = 6.863, 95%CI: 4.015-11.729), and sedative use (OR = 5.382, 95%CI: 3.156-9.187) as independent risk factors. A predictive model based on these five factors yielded an area under the ROC curve of 0.864 (95%CI: 0.812-0.916, Conclusion: Dysphagia occurs in over 80% of patients with severe stroke. The proposed model, using readily available clinical variables, shows potential for early risk identification. However, external validation in prospective multicenter cohorts is required before routine clinical application.
