Pulse wave velocity as a marker of severity of coronary artery disease.
Article in Journal of clinical hypertension (Greenwich, Conn.), 2009. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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
To determine whether pulse wave velocity (PWV) as a measure of arterial stiffness is a marker of coronary artery diseases (CAD), the authors did a cross-sectional study in 92 patients undergoing coronary angiography for suspected CAD. Arterial stiffness was assessed through recording PWV from the left carotid-right femoral arteries using an automated machine. The mean PWV was higher in patients with CAD than in those without CAD (11.13+/-0.91 vs 8.14+/-1.25 m/sec; P<.001). When the severity of CAD was expressed as 1-, 2-, and multiple-vessel disease, there was a significant association between the severity of CAD and PWV. PWV differed significantly with different categorical severity of CAD even when age and total cholesterol were controlled for. In a univariable analysis, PWV was higher with higher systolic blood pressure (P<.004). The authors conclude that arterial stiffness measured through PWV is an independent and complementary cardiovascular risk marker.
