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

objectiveADAMTS13 plays a crucial role in several diseases. Many observational studies have reported the relationship between ADAMTS13 and some cardiovascular diseases but have drawn different conclusions, likely attributed to confounding factors lacking adjustment. Identifying the role of ADAMTS13 in cardiovascular diseases is pivotal for prevention as well as early intervention in patients with latent cardiovascular diseases. This study aims to estimate whether the level and activity of ADAMTS13 are causally associated with common cardiovascular diseases.

methodsWe applied a two-sample Mendelian randomization approach incorporating genome-wide association summary statistics to verify the causal association between ADAMTS13 level, as well as activity and cardiovascular diseases.

resultsLower ADAMTS13 activity was causally associated with the increased risks for coronary heart diseases (

conclusionThe causal effect of lower ADAMTS13 activity on the increased odds of having cardiovascular diseases was coronary heart disease and myocardial infarction.
