The relationship between quantitative epicardial adipose tissue based on CT and coronary artery disease: A protocol for systematic review and meta-analysis.

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
backgroundEpicardial adipose tissue (EAT) is a kind of visceral adipose tissue with close proximity to coronary artery and myocardium, which can secrete cell factor, and influence the physiological function and pathophysiological process of myocardium and coronary artery. Clinical imaging diagnosis showed that the volume and thickness of EAT exists a certain relevance with coronary artery disease, but it lacked evidence of evidence-based medicine. The research on the implementation of this program will systematically evaluate the relationship of computed tomography (CT) quantitative EAT and coronary artery disease.
methodThe English databases (Embase, PubMed, the Cochrane Library, Web of Science) and Chinese database (CNKI, Wanfang, China biomedical database, VIP) of computer retrieval has collected the case control clinical study of relationship between EAT and coronary artery disease from the establishment of the database to October 2020, which was conducted extraction and quality evaluation by 2 researchers independently for data included in the study, and was conducted Meta-analysis for the included literature by adopting RevMan5.3 software.
resultThe research evaluated the correlation between EAT and coronary artery disease through the EAT thickness, EAT volume, and other indexes.
conclusionThe research has provided reliable evidence-based evidence for the correlation between CT EAT quantification and coronary artery disease. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: We will not publish private information from individuals. This kind of systematic review does not involve harming the rights of participants. No ethical approval was required. The results can be published in peer-reviewed journals or at relevant conferences. OSF REGISTRATION NUMBER: DOI 10.17605/OSF.IO/DVQNE.
