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

objectivesTo evaluate trends in stroke-related mortality and years of life lost (YLL) among older adults in China during 2005-2020.

methodsLeveraging data from National Mortality Surveillance System, we quantified counts and age-standardized rates for mortality and YLL attributable to stroke and its subtypes among adults aged 65 years and older in China and its provinces from 2005 to 2020.

resultsDuring 2005-2020, age-standardized mortality rate (ASMR) of stroke among older adults in China decreased from 1,327.30 to 1,000.69 per 100,000, accompanied by a 26.58% reduction in YLL rate. Specifically, ASMRs decreased by 48.08% for intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) and 7.57% for subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), whereas that for ischemic stroke (IS) increased by 1.24%. In 2020, ASMRs for IS, ICH, and SAH were 610.52, 357.86, and 32.32 per 100,000, respectively, with IS exhibiting the highest rate. Notably, IS mortality increased among men aged 75-79 years (1.95%), men aged 80+ years (17.79%), and women aged 80+ years (5.02%). In 2020, the highest ASMR of stroke was observed in Tibet, Anhui, and Shaanxi. DISCUSSION: The substantial burden of IS persists among older adults in China. Increased IS mortality among men aged 75+ years and women aged 80+ years warrants particular attention.
