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

objectivesTakayasu arteritis (TA) is a rare granulomatous vasculitis. Numano type V was the most frequently involved arteritis in China. In our study, we aimed to investigate the characteristics of the type V TA in Chinese people.

methodsWe retrospectively reviewed 143 medical charts of TA patients who were admitted to Beijing Anzhen Hospital from 2012 to 2019. All statistical studies were carried out with the SPSS program V.24.0.

resultsThe duration of disease at first admission of type V TA patients was longer than non-type V group (110.6 (21.0, 168.0) vs. 69.1 (12.0, 120.0) months, P = 0.034). The incidences of hypertension and coronary artery involvement were more common in type V TA patients compared with non-type V patients (59.5% vs. 30.4%, P < 0.001; 33.8% vs. 17.4%, P = 0.025; respectively). The numbers of platelet (PLT) and the plateletcrit (PCT) in type V TA patients were significantly smaller than those in non-type V group (244.9 (190.5, 293.8) vs. 281.6 (214.5, 332.0) × 10

conclusionsType V TA patients had longer disease duration and higher incidence of hypertension and were more prone to have coronary artery involvement compared with non-type V patients. Key Points • This study is the first to assess characteristics of the type V TA in Chinese people. • Type V TA patients had longer disease duration and higher incidence of hypertension and were more prone to have coronary artery involvement compared with non-type V patients. • The numbers of platelet (PLT) and the plateletcrit (PCT) in type V TA patients were significantly smaller than those in non-type V group.
