Increased Risk of Coronary Artery Disease in People with a Previous Diagnosis of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome: A Nationwide Retrospective Population-Based Case-Control Study.
Article in BioMed research international, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
backgroundExisting literature suggests that an association exists between coronary artery disease (CAD) and carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS), but few researchers have explored whether CTS is a risk for CAD. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis large case-control study explored the association between CTS and CAD, using health insurance claims data from Taiwan's National Health Insurance Research Database (NHIRD) between January 2000 and December 2013. International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision, Clinical Modification (ICD-9-CM) diagnostic codes identified 70,622 patients with CAD (ICD-9-CM codes 410-414; cases); 70,622 patients without CAD were frequency-matched by age, sex, and index year of CAD and served as controls.
resultsThe likelihood of a previous diagnosis of CTS (ICD-9-CM codes 354.0, 354.1) was significantly higher in the CAD group than in the comparison control group (crude OR: 1.75, 95% CI 1.63-1.89; p<0.0001; adjusted OR: 1.46, 95% CI 1.34-1.58; p<0.0001).
conclusionA significant positive correlation was observed between CAD and a previous diagnosis of CTS.
