Peripheral artery disease among Indigenous Canadians: What do we know?
Review in Canadian journal of surgery. Journal canadien de chirurgie, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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.
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
Indigenous Canadians experience a disproportionate burden of chronic atherosclerotic diseases, including peripheral artery disease (PAD). Despite an estimated prevalence of 800 000 patients with PAD in Canada, the burden of the disease among Indigenous Canadians is unclear. Available evidence suggests that this population has a higher prevalence of several major risk factors associated with PAD (diabetes, smoking and kidney disease). Unique socioeconomic, geographic and systemic obstacles affecting Indigenous Canadians’ health and health care access may worsen chronic disease outcomes. Little is known about the cardiovascular and limb outcomes of Indigenous peoples with PAD. A novel approach via multidisciplinary vascular health teams engaging Indigenous communities in a culturally competent manner may potentially provide optimal vascular care to this population. Further research into the prevalence and outcomes of PAD among Indigenous Canadians is necessary to define the problem and allow development of more ffective initiatives to alleviate the disease burden in this marginalized group.
