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

purposeThis study examined trends in the prevalence of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and CVD risk factors among U.S. older adults and workers. We also investigated correlations between the temporal prevalence of CVD and selected risk factors (hypertension, obesity, physical inactivity, smoking, and treated diabetes) among participants.

methodsData were obtained from the National Health Interview Survey (2004-2018) for U.S. adults aged greater than or equal to 50 years (n = 207,539), of which 84,180 were employed. Temporal trends in prevalence were assessed by fitting weighted regression models to the age-standardized prevalence to the 2010 U.S. POPULATION: The relationship between temporal prevalence of CVD with each risk factor was assessed using Spearman's correlation coefficient.

resultsAmong all older adults, the prevalence of CVD significantly declined (β = -0.16, P < .001) during 2004-2018; similar decline was observed among employed adults (β = -0.16, P = .001). Temporal prevalence in CVD was positively correlated to physical inactivity (r = 0.73, P = .002) and smoking (r = 0.81, P < .001), but not to any of the other risk factors.

conclusionsAmong employed adults aged greater than or equal to 50 years, the prevalence of CVD, physical inactivity, and smoking dramatically declined over the past 15 years. The temporal decline in prevalence of CVD was significantly associated with decline prevalence of physical inactivity and smoking.
