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

backgroundLower extremity arterial disease is usually a widespread vessel disease of atherosclerotic origin with a predisposition for certain anatomical sites. This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between lower extremity arterial disease anatomic and clinical features and various sitting patterns.

methodsPatients who underwent invasive peripheral angiography and who were diagnosed with lower extremity arterial disease in a single tertiary center were included in the study. Six sitting positions were defined. Sitting patterns and other clinical data were collected using a standardized questionnaire.

resultsIn this study, 150 patients diagnosed with lower extremity arterial disease who underwent invasive peripheral angiography were enrolled. The mean age of the study population was 66.2 ± 9.5 years, and an overwhelming majority of the participants were men (91.3% vs. 8.7%). A significant relationship was found between sitting positions #1-5 and right-sided lesions, as well as sitting positions #1-4 and left-sided lesions (sitting position #5 and right-sided lesions P=.039, all others P <.001). Longer and more frequent sitting conditions were found to be associated with lesions in the proximal arteries (common iliac artery and external iliac artery) but not in the more distal artery (superficial femoral artery, popliteal artery, anterior tibial artery, and posterior tibial artery) lesions.

conclusionsA clear relationship between sitting positions and lower extremity arterial disease sites was demonstrated. This data indicate that sitting patterns should be evaluated in every lower extremity arterial disease patient.
