Hypertension Characteristics and Neuroimaging Markers of Cerebrovascular Injury in Young Hypertensive Adults With Acute Cerebrovascular Events.

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
Stroke among young adults is a growing public health problem in sub-Saharan Africa, where hypertension is the leading modifiable risk factor for cerebrovascular injury (CVI). We aimed to describe hypertension patterns and associated CVI among young adults with stroke in Senegal. We conducted a cross-sectional study among adults aged ≤ 50 years with neuroimaging-confirmed stroke in Senegal. We collected demographic characteristics, vascular risk factors, blood pressure parameters, MRI findings, and clinical outcomes. Hypertension was categorized as previously diagnosed, newly diagnosed, treated, or untreated. We performed multivariable analyses to identify predictors of stroke severity, CVI, and outcomes. A total of 94 patients were included, with a mean age of 45.0 ± 4.3 years; 55.3% were female. Mean admission systolic and diastolic blood pressures were 150.31 ± 31.8 mmHg and 90.83 ± 22.03 mmHg, respectively, and 42.5% presented with severe hypertension. Primary hypertension accounted for 97.9% of hypertension cases. White matter hyperintensities were the most frequent marker of CVI and were significantly associated with stroke severity (
