Association between the newly proposed Chinese dietary inflammatory index and risk of ischemic stroke: a multi-centered case-control study.

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: Inflammation is a key mechanism in ischemic stroke pathogenesis. This study investigates the association between the Chinese Dietary Inflammatory Index (CHINA-DII) and ischemic stroke risk in a Chinese population. Methods: In this multi-centered hospital-based case-control study, 292 Chinese patients with first-ever ischemic stroke were compared with 292 age- and sex-matched controls. The CHINA-DII was calculated based on dietary intakes linked to inflammation, including specific nutrients and foods that contribute to pro-inflammatory or anti-inflammatory pathways. Multivariable logistic regression was used to calculate odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for CHINA-DII percentiles, adjusting for key potential confounders. Results: Compared to controls, stroke patients had a significantly higher CHINA-DII scores than controls (-1.16 ± 1.01 vs. -1.88 ± 0.95, Conclusion: A higher CHINA-DII score is associated with an increased risk of ischemic stroke in this Chinese cohort. While dietary inflammatory factors may contribute to stroke risk, the role of individual dietary antioxidants in stroke prevention remains uncertain.
