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

backgroundSeveral cross-sectional studies have suggested an association between SUA and asthma. However, few studies have investigated this relationship longitudinally. Although SUA is an independent risk factor for chronic kidney disease and cardiovascular diseases, its contribution to incident asthma remains uncertain.

objectiveTo determine whether a high SUA was a risk factor for adult incident asthma.

methodsBy using health care data from the Shandong multicenter health check-up, 76,369 participants, aged 20 to 79 years, were identified who had an SUA determination with a mean follow-up period of 3.73±2.21 years. Multivariate modeling employed Cox proportional hazards models to verify the association between SUA and incident asthma by adjusting age, BMI, smoking habits, drinking habits, and asthma-like diseases.

resultsA total of 51,389 individuals were included in the analysis. Cut-off values of SUA able to discriminate asthma status were identified by means of maximally selected rank statistics in the whole participants (≥376.80umol/L), women (≥314.45umol/L), and men (≥376.80umol/L). Multivariate Cox regression analyses adjusted for covariates (age, body mass index (BMI), smoking habit, drinking habit, and asthma-like disease) identified an independent association between SUA and incident asthma in the whole participants (hazard ratio (HR) 2.92, 95% confidence intervals (CI), 1.76-4.48, P=0.00) and men (HR 3.02, 95% CI 1.70-5.39, P=0.00), but not in women.

conclusionThe results of the current study confirmed that high SUA was an independent risk factor for incident asthma after adjustment of potential covariates and suggested that a cut-off value related to incident asthma could be identified only in men.
