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

objectiveConflicting results have been reported on the association between lipids and risk of ischemic stroke. We tested the hypothesis that the burden of ischemic stroke attributable to either elevated apolipoprotein B (apoB) or non-high-density lipoprotein (non-HDL) cholesterol is higher than that attributable to elevated low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol.

methodsWe included 104,618 individuals from an ongoing cohort study, the Copenhagen General Population Study. The associations of quintiles of apoB, non-HDL cholesterol, and LDL cholesterol with risk of ischemic stroke were estimated by Cox proportional hazards regressions with 95% confidence intervals. With 1

resultsHigher quintiles of apoB and non-HDL cholesterol were associated with increased risk of ischemic stroke (both trends: p < 0.0001), whereas for LDL cholesterol this association was somewhat attenuated (trend: p = 0.0005). A similar pattern was seen for population attributable fraction values. Compared to individuals in the 1

interpretationThe proportion of ischemic stroke attributable to either elevated apoB or non-HDL cholesterol was double that attributable to elevated LDL cholesterol. ANN NEUROL 2022;92:379-389.
