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

aimClinical evidence on cardiovascular health metrics of couples, as defined by the American Heart Association (AHA), remains to be scarce. This study aims to explore the correlation of the AHA-defined cardiovascular health metrics within couples using a nationwide epidemiological database.

methodsWe examined the modified cardiovascular health metrics among 87,160 heterosexual couples using the health claims database from the Japan Medical Data Center. The ideal cardiovascular health metrics is comprised of (1) nonsmoking, (2) body mass index <25 kg/m

resultsA correlation was noted on the ideal modified cardiovascular health metrics between couples. The prevalence of meeting ≥ 5 ideal components in the female partners increased from 32 % in the male partners meeting 0-1 ideal component to 56 % in those meeting 6 ideal components. The same trend has been observed in all generations (20-39 years, 40-49 years, 50-59 years, ≥ 60 years). The association between couples is found to be better in terms of smoking status, blood pressure, and fasting glucose level.

conclusionThere was an intracouple correlation of the ideal modified cardiovascular health metrics, suggesting the importance of couple-based intervention to improve cardiovascular health status.
