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
purposeCardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients. The aim of this study is to investigate the predictive value of coronary artery calcification score (CACs) combined with bone mineral density (BMD) for the risk of cardiovascular diseases in MHD patients.
methodsFrom January 2017 to January 2019, we enrolled 112 MHD patients and 112 controls in Ningbo First Hospital, and retrospectively counted the cardiovascular events in the next 2 years after enrollment. According to the occurrence of cardiovascular events, the MHD patients were divided into CVD group and non-CVD group. The differences of vertebral BMD and CACs between the two groups were compared. ROC curve, Kaplan-Meier curve and Cox regression analyses were used for assess the predictive value of 2-year cardiovascular events in MHD patients.
resultsAmong 112 MHD patients, 49 (43.75%) patients had cardiovascular events. The results showed that the average value of BMD in MHD patients was significantly lower than that in the control group (99.88 ± 30.99 VS. 108.35 ± 23.98, P = 0.0231). The CACs in MHD patients were significantly higher than that in the control group (317.81 ± 211.53 VS. 190.03 ± 100.50, P < 0.001). The results between CVD group and the non-CVD group were to the same direction (BMD: 81.12 ± 31.28 VS. 114.48 ± 21.61, P < 0.001; CACs: 447.16 ± 234.11 VS. 217.21 ± 119.03, P < 0.001). Besides, CACs combined with BMD yield an AUC of 0.875 with a sensitivity of 79.60%, a specificity of 82.50%. Kaplan-Meier curve and Cox regression analyses indicated that CACs and BMD were independently associated with high risk of cardiovascular events in MHD patients.
conclusionThe combination of CACs and vertebral BMD could predict the occurrence of cardiovascular events in MHD patients to some extent.
