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
purposeThis study aimed to clarify the relationship between serum high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) level and incidence of CV events. Moreover, the relationship stratified by gender was evaluated.
methodsThe study database was derived from a multicenter, prospective, cohort study that included 1520 incident dialysis patients in Aichi Prefecture, Japan. Baseline was defined as the time of dialysis initiation and outcome as incidence of CV event. The enrolled patients were first classified into four quartile groups (Q1, Q2, Q3, and Q4; Q1 was the lowest serum HDL-C) based on serum HDL-C level. A multivariate Cox proportional hazards analysis was conducted using the stepwise regression method to determine factors associated with outcomes and was performed in each gender.
resultsThe log-rank test revealed significant differences in the incidence of CV events between not only the four groups (p = 0.003) but also the male and female patients (HR, 0.74; 95% CI, 0.59-0.92; p < 0.001). Stepwise regression analysis indicated that higher serum HDL-C level was significantly associated with lower incidence of CV events (HR, 0.88; 95% CI, 0.82-0.95; p = 0.001). The association between serum HDL-C and incidence of CV events could be clarified in only female patients (male patients; HR, 0.92; 95% CI, 0.84-1.01; p = 0.067 and female patients; HR, 0.81; 95% CI, 0.72-0.92; p = 0.001).
conclusionsHDL-C level at the initiation of dialysis was associated with the incidence of CV events. Moreover, the association was prominent in female patients.
