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

Pulse wave velocity (PWV) has been used as a measurement for arterial stiffness, a predictor of cardiovascular risk. Tracking describes the stability of a measurement over time. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the tracking stability of carotid-femoral (cfPWV), carotid-radial (crPWV) and carotid-distal (cdPWV) PWV in young adults and their associations with anthropometric and hemodynamic measurements. cfPWV, crPWV and cdPWV were measured by tonometric (SphygmoCor) technique in 531 subjects (aged 23.7±4.9 with 42.9% African Americans and 49.9% females). Out of these subjects, 142 subjects had all these 3 PWV measurements evaluated again during their next visit with an average follow-up time of 2 years. In the tracking analysis on the data from the 142 subjects, cfPWV displayed moderate to relatively high tracking ability (r=0.61, P<0.001), whereas crPWV and cdPWV only displayed low to moderate tracking coefficients (r=0.29 and r=0.36 respectively, P<0.001). In the association test on the data from the 531 subjects, all three PWV measurements showed significant correlations with age and obesity related measurements. cfPWV displayed stronger correlations with these parameters. In addition, all three PWVs showed significant correlations with systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, mean arterial pressure and pulse pressure with the exception that no correlation existed between crPWV and pulse pressure. The higher tracking ability of cfPWV and its higher association with obesity related measurements highlights the importance of using cfPWV compared with crPWV and cdPWV for research and clinical settings.
