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

BACKGROUND &

aimsAlthough an inverse association of red blood cell cis-vaccenic acid and risk of myocardial infarction has been reported, it is unclear whether cis-vaccenic acid might lower the risk of heart failure (HF) with antecedent coronary heart disease (CHD). We sought to examine the relation of plasma cis-vaccenic acid with HF with antecedent CHD.

methodsThis nested case-control study was based on 788 incident HF cases (of whom 258 cases had antecedent CHD) and 788 controls. Each control was selected using a risk set sampling technique at the time of the occurrence of the index case and matched on year of birth, age at blood collection, and race. Fatty acids were measured using gas chromatography and incident HF was self-reported on annual questionnaires and validation in a subsample using medical records.

resultsIn a multivariable conditional logistic regression, the odds ratio (95% confidence interval) for HF with prior CHD were 1.0 (ref), 0.72 (0.33-1.57), 0.28 (0.12-0.67), and 0.23 (0.09-0.58) across consecutive quartiles of cis-vaccenic acid (p_trend 0.0004). Each standard deviation of cis-vaccenic acid was associated with a 41% lower risk of HF with antecedent CHD (95% CI: 17%-59%) in a multivariable adjusted model.

conclusionsOur data suggest that higher plasma levels of plasma cis-vaccenic acid may be associated with a lower risk of HF with antecedent CHD. Confirmation of these results in the general population including women and other ethnic groups is warranted.
