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

introductionCoronary heart disease is a major cause of death worldwide. Although the relationship between vitamin D status and cardiovascular diseases is not clearly understood, vitamin D deficiency could be a potentially modifiable and underestimated risk factor for ischemic heart diseases. This study aims to assess and compare vitamin D status between patient group with chronic stable angina and matched control group.

methodsA case-control study was conducted on chronic stable angina patients and matched controls attending family medicine/internal medicine clinics at Cairo University Hospitals. Forty two adult patients with chronic stable angina and forty two matched controls were studied. Detailed medical history, examination, and laboratory tests (vitamin D, fasting lipid profile, and blood sugar) were collected from study participants of both groups.

resultsSevere vitamin D deficiency was found in 78.6% and 7.1% of cases and controls, respectively. Vitamin D level was found to be a significant predictor of chronic stable angina. Every unit (ng/ml) increase in vitamin D level decreases the chance of the subject to have chronic stable angina by 0.30 times.

conclusionThere is a significant association between vitamin D deficiency and the occurrence of chronic stable angina.
