Gender- and age-related differences in treatment and control of cardiovascular risk factors among high-risk patients with angina.
Article in Journal of clinical hypertension (Greenwich, Conn.), 2005. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Dyslipidemic, hypertensive patients (N = 48,863) were stratified by gender, age, and angina (n = 2502) vs. nonangina (n = 46,358) status. Comparing 95% confidence intervals yielded significant differences in treatment and cardiovascular risk factor control between subgroups. More men than women had low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) <100 mg/dL (angina, 43.94-43.96 vs. 34.42-34.50; nonangina, 32.43-32.43 vs. 17.25-17.25) and 100-129 mg/dL (angina, 32.12-32.14 vs. 35.10-35.18; nonangina, 53.86-53.86 vs. 32.44-32.44). More women than men had LDL-C > or = 130 mg/dL (angina, 27.68-27.72 vs. 23.91-23.93; nonangina, 38.70-38.70 vs. 35.38-35.39). Women were less likely than men to receive statins (angina, 69.95-69.99 vs. 82.11-82.13; nonangina, 59.80-59.80 vs. 63.72-63.72), any antilipidemic medication at all (angina, 25.93-25.97 vs. 13.48-13.48; nonangina, 36.73-36.73 vs. 30.73-30.73), or to have current cholesterol measurements (angina, 56.82-56.88 vs. 34.54-34.56; nonangina, 45.77-45.77 vs. 39.75-39.75). Primary care providers treat high-risk patients relatively aggressively; however, opportunities to forestall cardiovascular disease may be missed in hypertensive, dyslipidemic women whose LDL-C is often not measured and controlled.
