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

We assessed the independent effects of beta blockers, calcium antagonists, lipid-lowering drugs, angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs), angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs), anti-platelet drugs, vitamin K antagonists, percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and coronary artery by-pass grafting (CABG) on mortality and on the composite endpoint of death, myocardial infarction, stroke or heart failure in patients with stable angina pectoris. We estimated the effects of the interventions used at baseline by multivariate Cox regression and during follow-up by G-estimation in 7,665 patients followed for a mean of 5 years in the ACTION trial. Adjusted hazard ratios (95% confidence intervals) comparing all cause mortality among users during follow-up to non-users were 1.01 (0.91, 1.09) for beta blockade, 0.82 (0.75, 0.89) for ACEIs or ARBs, 0.93 (0.87, 0.98) for calcium antagonists, 0.54 (0.49, 0.62) for lipid-lowering drugs, 0.49 (0.42, 0.53) for anti-platelet drugs, 0.74 (0.69, 0.78) for PCI, and 0.91 (0.82, 0.98) for CABG. Effects on the composite endpoint were less marked. This observational study confirms that ACEIs or ARBs, lipid-lowering and anti-platelet drugs as used in the everyday management of stable angina have independent secondary preventive effects. Calcium antagonists, PCI and CABG also appear to improve outcome.
