Do meteorological factors influence the occurrence of acute aortic dissection? A 10-year retrospective institutional study.

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
objectiveThis study aimed to clarify the relationship between meteorological factors and the occurrence of aortic dissection.
methodsThe study included 282 consecutive patients who were admitted to our institute with acute aortic dissection over a 10-year period. The local meteorological data over the same period were analyzed.
resultsOn the days with occurrences of acute aortic dissection, there were significant differences in the following factors: the minimum and maximum temperature (p < 0.0001), difference in the minimum and maximum temperature from the 10-year average, atmospheric pressure (p < 0.0001), and difference in atmospheric pressure between the day of occurrence and the previous day. Cut-off values were determined by ROC curve analysis. Univariate analyses identified the following factors as significant predictors of the occurrence of acute aortic dissection: minimum temperature < 4.0 °C (OR 2.42, p < 0.0001), maximum temperature < 15.1 °C (OR 2.23, p < 0.0001), atmospheric pressure > 1008.9 hPa (OR 1.75, p < 0.0001), difference between the minimum temperature and 10-year average < 0.3 °C, difference between the maximum temperature and 10-year average < 0.44 °C; and the difference in atmospheric pressure between the day of occurrence and the previous day > 0.4 hPa. However, the differences of the minimum and maximum temperatures from the 10-year average were the only factors that remained significant in the multivariate analysis. The minimum (R
conclusionMeteorological factors influenced the occurrence of acute aortic dissection. In particular, a minimum temperature of < 4 °C and maximum temperature difference from the 10-year average < 0.44 °C was identified as strong risk factors for the occurrence of acute aortic dissection.
