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

aimsTo investigate the association of metabolic parameters including hemoglobin glycation index (HGI, observed HbA1c - predicted HbA1c) with systemic arterial stiffness assessed by cardio-ankle vascular index (CAVI). SUBJECTS: We analyzed the cross-sectional data from 22,696 subjects (mean age 48.0 years, mean FPG 88 mg/dL, mean HbA1c 5.5%) with or without past history of metabolic disorders including diabetes.

resultsMen had higher body mass index (BMI), CAVI, blood pressure (BP), FPG, HbA1c, total cholesterol and triglyceride; and lower age, HGI and HDL-cholesterol. After stratifying subjects into HGI quartiles, the highest quartile (Q4) group showed higher age, female ratio, and frequencies of obesity, hypertension, diabetes, and dyslipidemia. Furthermore, bivariate logistic regression model revealed that the Q4 of HGI was a significant predictor of high CAVI (⩾9.0) independent of the presence of diabetes.

conclusionHigh HGI is associated with systemic arterial stiffening independent of hyperglycemia. This index is therefore expected to be not only a predictor of hypoglycemia, but also a therapeutic guide for atherosclerosis.
