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

backgroundThe cardiovascular relevance of isolated low levels of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) is yet to be determined. Stroke often leads to long-term disability, and thus, not only stroke mortality but also stroke incidence is a topic of research. Although isolated low HDL-C level has been found to be a predictor for stroke mortality previously, whether it can predict stroke incidence is unknown.

methodsIn the Jichi Medical School cohort study, 11 025 community-living residents without a history of stroke were examined. Hazard ratios (HRs) for isolated and non-isolated low HDL-C levels were calculated relative to those for normal HDL-C levels in stroke patients using Cox's regression models.

resultsDuring the mean follow-up period of 10.7 years, 412 residents had their first-ever stroke. The multivariable-adjusted HRs for the levels of isolated and non-isolated low HDL-C were 1.11 (95% confidence interval, 0.85-1.44) and 1.35 (1.01-1.81), respectively, when compared to that for normal HDL-C.

conclusionLow HDL-C levels with other dyslipidemias may contribute to the incidence of stroke, not isolated low HDL-C.
