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

introductionArterial stiffness (AS) is a well-accepted and reliable predictor of atherosclerotic diseases. Inflammation plays an important role in the development of AS.

aimTo evaluate local carotid stiffness (CS) together with fibrinogen and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) levels in stable angina pectoris (SAP) patients. MATERIAL AND

methodsThe study consisted of 353 consecutive patients with SAP. All underwent coronary angiography (CAG) after the evaluation of local CS parameters and carotid intima-media thickness (IMT) from both common carotid arteries by a real-time echo-tracking system. Baseline inflammatory biomarkers, serum hsCRP and fibrinogen levels were measured. Based on CAG findings, the patients were classified into 4 groups: control subjects with normal coronary arteries (group 1,

resultsThe mean carotid pulse wave velocity (PWV) in patients with angiographically confirmed coronary artery disease (CAD) was significantly higher than that in patients with normal coronary arteries (7.82 ±1.76 vs. 6.51 ±0.85 cm/s,

conclusionsLocal CS, carotid IMT, hsCRP and fibrinogen levels are significant predictors of atherosclerotic burden and they may facilitate the identification of high-risk patients for the early diagnosis and prompt treatment of CAD.
