Unmet medical needs in intermittent Claudication with diabetes and coronary artery disease-A "real-world" analysis on 21 197 PAD patients.
Article in Clinical cardiology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundPeripheral artery disease (PAD) is frequently co-prevalent with coronary artery disease (CAD) and diabetes (DM). The study aims to define the burden of CAD and/ or DM in PAD patients at moderate stages and further to evaluate its impact on therapy and outcome.
methodsStudy is based on health insurance claims data of the BARMER reflecting an unselected "real-world" scenario. Retrospective analyses were based on 21 197 patients hospitalized for PAD Rutherford 1-3 between 1 January 2009 to 31 December 2011, including a 4-year follow-up (median 775 days).
resultsIn PAD patients, CAD is prevalent in 25.3% (n = 5355), DM in 23.5% (n = 4976), and both CAD and DM in 8.2% (n = 1741). Overall, in-hospital mortality was 0.4%, being increased if CAD was present (CAD alone: OR 1.849; 95%-CI 1.066-3.208; DM alone: OR 1.028; 95%-CI 0.520-2.033; CAD and DM: OR 3.115; 95%-CI 1.720-5.641). Both, CAD and DM increased long-term mortality (CAD alone: HR 1.234; 95%-CI 1.106-1.376; DM alone: HR 1.260; 95%-CI 1.125-1.412; CAD and DM: HR 1.76; 95%-CI 1.552-1.995). DM further increased long-term amputation risk (DM alone: HR 2.238; 95%-CI 1.849-2.710; DM and CAD: HR 2.199; 95%-CI 1.732-2.792), whereas CAD (alone) did not.
conclusionsIn a greater perspective, the data identify also mild to modest stage PAD patients at particular risk for adverse outcomes in presence of CAD and/or DM. CAD and DM both are related with a highly increased risk of long-term mortality even in intermittent claudication, and DM independently increased amputation risk.
