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 purpose of this study was to confirm that inequalities in community-level social economic status (SES) do actually impact the incidence of ischemic heart disease (IHD) using the Korean population-based cohort study of the National Health Insurance Service-National Sample Cohort (NHIS-NSC) database.

methodsThis study used the NHIS-NSC database, a population-based cohort database established by the NHIS in South Korea. Community-level SES was classified into three categories, i.e. low, moderate, and high, according to the rank. The outcome measure of interest was IHD, which was defined according to the International Classification of Disease, 10th Revision (ICD-10) codes.

resultsIn the low community-level SES group, the incidence of IHD was 3.56 per 1000 person years (cumulative incidence rate, 1.78%), and in the high community level SES group, it was 3.13 per 1000 person years (cumulative incidence rate, 1.57%). Multivariate analysis showed that the incidence of IHD was higher in the low community-level SES group (p = 0.029). The log-rank test showed that the cumulative incidence of IHD was higher in the low community level SES group than the high community-level SES group (adjusted hazard ratio, 1.16; 95% CI, 1.01-1.32).

conclusionsPeople living in areas with low community-level SES show an increased incidence of IHD. Therefore, intervention in active, health-risk behavior corrections at the local level will be required to reduce the incidence of IHD.
