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

backgroundLow adiponectin levels are associated with increased insulin resistance (IR) and arterial stiffness in hypertensive patients, but higher adiponectin levels are also found in heart failure patients. This discrepancy has not been fully resolved, but it may be related to the adiponectin gene (

methodsIn nondiabetic men without disease (n = 301), anthropometric parameters, lipid profiles, IR, circulating adiponectin, and brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) were measured. rs1501299 G/T polymorphism was also analyzed.

resultsCirculating adiponectin levels were negatively correlated with baPWV and homeostatic model assessment-IR in the T allele carriers (n = 167), but this correlation was not observed in the GG subjects (n = 134). However, a positive correlation between baPWV and IR was observed in the GG subjects, but not in the T carriers. These patterns were maintained after the adjustment for confounding factors. A stepwise linear regression analysis revealed that circulating adiponectin and systolic blood pressure (BP) were the main influencing factors on baPWV levels in T carriers, but systolic BP, IR and age were the main contributors to increased baPWV levels in the GG subjects.

conclusionsThis study demonstrates that the relationship between circulating adiponectin and arterial stiffness is different according to
