Details

In a meta-analysis, Geeganage and Bath (2010) studied whether blood pressure (BP) should be actively altered during the acute phase of stroke, and assessed the effect of multiple vasoactive drugs on BP in acute stroke. Selection criteria included: Randomized trials of interventions that would be expected, on pharmacological grounds, to alter BP in patients within one week of the onset of acute stroke. There were four outcomes: systolic blood pressure (SBP, in mHg), diastolic blood pressure (DBP, in mHg), death (D), and death or disability (DD).

ID: ID for each study included
ft_D Number of early death within 1 month (D) in "1 Drug" Group
fc_D Number of D in "control" Group
nt_D Number of people in "1 Drug" Group reporting D status
nc_D Number of people in "control" Group reporting D status
OR_D Odds ratio of D for "1 Drug" versus "control" group
ft_DD Number of early death or deterioration within 1 month (DD) in "1 Drug" Group
fc_DD Number of early DD in "control" Group
nt_DD Number of people in "1 Drug" Group reporting DD status
nc_DD Number of people in "control" Group reporting DD status
OR_DD Odds ratio of DD for "1 Drug" versus "control" group
nt_SBP Number of people in "1 Drug" Group reporting Systolic blood pressure (SBP) status
nc_SBP Number of people in "control" Group reporting SBP status
MD_SBP Mean difference of SBP for "1 Drug" versus "control" group
sdt_SBP Standard deviation of SBP in "1 Drug" Group
sdc_SBP Standard deviation of SBP in "control" Group
nt_DBP Number of people in "1 Drug" Group reporting Diastolic blood pressure (DBP) status
nc_DBP Number of people in "control" Group reporting DBP status
MD_DBP Mean difference of DBP for "1 Drug" versus "control" group
sdt_DBP Standard deviation of DBP in "1 Drug" Group
