1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

introductionCardiovascular diseases are the most frequent causes of morbidity and mortality in patients with chronic renal disease. The aim of our paper is to evaluate the risk factors of cardiovascular complications in patients with various stages of chronic renal disease (CRD), with or without diabetes mellitus (DM). PATIENTS AND

methodsThe study included 98 patients with different stages of the CRD, with creatinine clearance <60 ml/min/1.73m2, and laboratory parameters monitored: homocysteine, BNP, cholesterol, LDL, HDL, HbA1c, Body Mass Index (BMI). First group comprised 49 patients with DM, age 50-82 years, M 28/F 21. Second group comprised 49 patients without DM, age 35-80 years, M 18/F 31. The IMT (intima media thickness) was measured by B-mode ultrasonography, and all patients had echocardiography examination done by 2D Doppler ultrasonography.

resultsThe IMT values in diabetic patients had statistically significant positive correlation with homocysteine values of r=0.9393, p<0.034, and cholesterol r=0.289, p<0.05, compared to non-diabetics. A significant negative correlation was found between the ejection fraction (EF) and BMI in both groups, more prominent in non-diabetics r=0.289, p<0.044 (diabetics r=0.162, p>0.05). 47.4% of diabetics had arteriosclerotic changes on carotid arteries, 8.5% had stenosis of ACC, and 22.0% had rhythm abnormalities on ECG. A positive correlation between IMT and BMI was found in diabetics, but was not statistically significant r=0.111, p>0.05. In the diabetics group a significantly higher (p<0.05) values of BNP, HbA1c, proteinuria, BMI, and cholesterol were found, and significantly lowered EF (p<0.0001).

conclusionRisk factors for cardiovascular complications in patients with DM are various, and the most pronounced significance was found in the values of homocysteine, BNP and cholesterol.
