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

aimIn statin-treated persons with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) the further ASCVD risk that diabetes mellitus (DM) adds is not well-quantified. We examined this residual risk for initial and total recurrent ASCVD events.

methodsWe studied 3271 patients with ASCVD on statin therapy in the AIM-HIGH clinical trial cohort. Cox regression and the Prentice, Williams, and Peterson model examined the excess risk of initial and total recurrent ASCVD events associated with DM over a 3- year mean follow-up. Predictors of first and total ASCVD events in those with and without DM were also examined.

resultsOf our cohort with ASCVD on statin therapy 40% also had DM. Those with vs. without DM were older, were less likely to be male or white. They had higher systolic blood pressure, lower HDL-C, LDL-C, lipoprotein (a), but higher triglycerides and BMI (all p < 0.01). Adjusted HRs were 1.21 (95% CI; 1.01-1.46, p = 0.038) and 1.23 (95% CI: 1.05-1.44, p = 0.012) for first and total recurrent ASCVD events, respectively. Homocysteine and lipoprotein(a) most strongly predicted events in those with and without DM, respectively.

conclusionIn statin-treated patients with ASCVD, DM was associated with significantly greater residual risk over ASCVD alone for both first and total recurrent ASCVD events.
