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

Pulse wave velocity (PWV) and cardio-ankle vascular index (CAVI) are measurements of arterial stiffness and are widely used as indices of arteriosclerosis. In Japan, brachial-ankle PWV (baPWV) is generally used to measure PWV, and while the reference value for this parameter is specified in Japanese guidelines for the noninvasive vascular function test, the CAVI reference value has not been standardized. We measured CAVI in 4,545 patients with at least one cardiovascular risk factor, and baPWV in 1,737 of these 4,545 patients on the same day as a part of an ongoing nationwide registry. The association between CAVI and baPWV was positive and significant (
