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

backgroundAutonomic malfunction is linked to elevated cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Various patient characteristics can alter the cardiac autonomic function therefore, using a prospective observational study, we aimed to assess the effects of different clinical and angiographic factors of coronary artery disease (CAD) patients on the cardiac autonomic function evaluated by heart rate variability (HRV) measurement. METHODS AND PATIENTS: 100 patients undergoing coronary angiography when clinically indicated were enrolled. A short-term 5-minute HRV measurement was performed by CheckMyheart™ handheld HRV device manufactured by DailyCare BioMedical Inc, Taiwan. HRV data were fed to CheckMyheart™ 5-min HRV analysis software and interpreted based on the standard methods for HRV measurement as discussed in the Task Force of the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) and The North American Society of Pacing and Electrophysiology (NAPSE). Coronary angiography was done with an emphasis on SYNTAX (SX) score calculation.

resultsThe mean age of the recruited patients was 56.89±10.75 years with 85% of them were males and the mean SX score 13.11±8.52. Multivariate regression analysis of the different patient clinical and angiographic characteristics affecting HRV showed that CAD type either single or multi-vessel and SX score were the major independent variables affecting HRV in patients with CAD.

conclusionThe complexity of CAD measured by SX score was the main independent predictor affecting the cardiac autonomic function estimated by HRV measurement.
