Association of Cardiac Biomarkers With Cardiovascular Outcomes in Patients With Psoriatic Arthritis and Psoriasis: A Longitudinal Cohort Study.

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
objectiveIn patients with psoriatic disease (PsD), we determined whether cardiac troponin I (cTnI) and N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) were associated with carotid plaque burden and the development of cardiovascular events independent of the Framingham Risk Score (FRS).
methodsAmong 1,000 patients with PsD, carotid total plaque area (TPA) was measured in 358 participants at baseline. Cardiac troponin I and NT-proBNP were measured using automated clinical assays. The association between cardiac biomarkers and carotid atherosclerosis was assessed by multivariable regression after adjusting for cardiovascular risk factors. Improvement in the prediction of cardiovascular events beyond the FRS was tested using measures of risk discrimination and reclassification.
resultsIn univariate analyses, cTnI (β coefficient 0.52 [95% confidence interval (95% CI) 0.3, 0.74], P < 0.001) and NT-proBNP (β coefficient 0.24 [95% CI 0.1, 0.39], P < 0.001) were associated with TPA. After adjusting for cardiovascular risk factors, the association remained statistically significant for cTnI (adjusted β coefficient 0.21 [95% CI 0, 0.41], P = 0.047) but not for NT-proBNP (P = 0.21). Among the 1,000 patients with PsD assessed for cardiovascular risk prediction, 64 patients had incident cardiovascular events. When comparing a base model (with the FRS alone) to expanded models (with the FRS plus cardiac biomarkers), there was no improvement in predictive performance.
conclusionIn patients with PsD, cTnI may reflect the burden of atherosclerosis, independent of traditional cardiovascular risk factors. Cardiac troponin I and NT-proBNP are associated with incident cardiovascular events independent of the FRS, but further study of their role in cardiovascular risk stratification is warranted.
