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

purposeThis research aimed to investigate the correlation between androgenic alopecia (AGA) and coronary artery disease (CAD) and analyze its value in predicting the severity of coronary atherosclerosis in the Han Chinese male population. PATIENTS AND

methodsA total of 402 Han Chinese male patients aged 28-75 years were enrolled and performed coronary angiography (CAG) after admission. According to the BASP classification, the participants were divided into mild, moderate and severe AGA. CAD was determined via CAG and defined as stenosis of ≥50% in at least one major coronary artery, and the Gensini score was calculated to evaluate the severity of coronary atherosclerosis.

resultsIn this study, CAD status (

conclusionThis study suggested that AGA is independently associated with CAD in a Han Chinese male population. AGA may be a simple and feasible method for screening CAD and indicative of the severity of coronary atherosclerosis.
