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

Purpose: Vascular age (VA) is the direct index to reflect vascular aging, so it plays a particular role in public health. How to obtain VA conveniently and cheaply has always been a research hotspot. This study proposes a new method to evaluate VA with wrist pulse signal. Methods: Firstly, we fit the pulse signal by mixed Gaussian model (MGM) to extract the shape features, and adopt principal component analysis (PCA) to optimize the dimension of the shape features. Secondly, the principal components and chronological age (CA) are respectively taken as the independent variables and dependent variable to establish support vector regression (SVR) model. Thirdly, the principal components are fed into the SVR model to predicted the vascular aging of each subject. The predicted value is regarded as the description of VA. Finally, we compare the correlation coefficients of VA with pulse width (PW), inflection point area ratio (IPA), Ratio b/a (RBA), augmentation index (AIx), diastolic augmentation index (DAI) and pulse transit time (PTT) with those of CA with these six indices. Results: Compared with the CA, the VA is closer to PW ( Conclusion: The VA is more representative of vascular aging than CA. The method presented in this study provides a new way to directly and objectively assess vascular aging in public health.
