Potential gains in health-adjusted life expectancy from reducing four main non-communicable diseases among Chinese elderly.
Article in BMC geriatrics, 2019. 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
backgroundTo estimate the potential gains in health-adjusted life expectancy (HALE) after hypothetical elimination of four non-communicable diseases (NCDs) among Chinese elderly from 1990 to 2016, including cardiovascular diseases (CVD), cancers, chronic respiratory diseases (CRD) and diabetes mellitus (DM).
methodsBased on data from Global Burden of Disease 2016, we generated life table by gender using Sullivan method to calculate HALE. Disease-deleted method was used to calculate cause-elimination HALE, after hypothetical elimination of specific diseases.
resultsFrom 1990 to 2016, HALE increased for all age groups. After hypothetic eliminating the four main NCDs, potential gain in HALE by CVD, DM and cancers increased while by CRD decreased from 1990 to 2016 for both genders. Among four main NCDs, potential gain in HALE after eliminating CVD was largest and increased most for both genders. Although elimination of DM led to the smallest gain in HALE, the increasing speed of gain in HALE by DM was faster than that by CVD and cancers from 1990 to 2016.
conclusionsThis study highlights the potential gains in HALE of NCDs among Chinese elderly from 1990 to 2016. HALE of Chinese elderly could further increase from the reduction of NCDs. Control measures and targeted prevention should be carried out.
