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

Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a systemic chronic inflammatory disease, and serum fibrinogen and albumin are 2 important factors in systemic inflammation. We aimed to investigate the relationship between the fibrinogen-albumin ratio (FAR) and outcomes in patients with CAD who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). All patients were from the Clinical Outcomes and Risk Factors of Patients with Coronary Heart Disease after PCI (CORFCHD-PCI) study, which is a retrospective cohort study (Identifier: ChiCTR-ORC-16010153) that includes a total of 6050 patients with CAD after PCI from January 2008 to December 2016. A total of 5829 patients with CAD after PCI were recruited in the present study. They were divided into 2 groups according to the FAR cutoff value, which was calculated using a receiver operating characteristic curve, a low group (FAR < 0.095, n = 3811), and a high group (FAR ≥ 0.095, n = 2018). The average follow-up time was 35.9 ± 22.6 months. The multivariate Cox proportional hazards model showed that FAR was independently correlated with all-cause mortality (adjusted hazard ratio [HR] = 1.432 [1.134-1.808],
