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

introductionCoronary artery disease (CAD) and peripheral arterial disease (PAD) account for significant morbidity and mortality in Germany and are more prevalent in rural, non-metropolitan areas. The goal of this study is to screen patients for their current atherosclerotic status, initiate treatment according to the latest scientific findings using a standardised multimodal approach and track their atherosclerotic status over one year. METHODS AND ANALYSIS: This manuscript describes the study protocol of a prospective, multicentre registry of 500 sequential patients with CAD and/or PAD in rural, non-metropolitan regions of Germany. Patients, who visit the "WalkByLab" at the Brandenburg Medical School, Brandenburg, Germany, will be assessed by using our structured, multimodal risk factor management (SMART) tool to evaluate cardiovascular morbidity data, collect information on care and deliver multimodal therapy. The study's primary objective is a cross-sectional examination of the risk profile, diagnostic and therapeutic status in this patient group. Secondary objectives include the assessment of risk factor correlations as well as changes in risk-factor profile and therapy adherence. Patients will be examined at baseline and followed up at three-monthly intervals for one year. Over this time, atherosclerotic risk factors and patient adherence to defined therapeutic strategies will be evaluated. Study completion is estimated to be December 2021. An expansion of this concept into other rural, non-metropolitan neighbouring regions is planned. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: This registry was assessed and approved by the ethics committee of the Brandenburg State Medical Association, Brandenburg, Germany, and conducted in accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki. The study findings will be disseminated through usual academic channels including meeting presentations and peer-reviewed publications. PROTOCOL VERSION: 1.0.
