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

Background: Etiology and risk factors of peripheral artery disease (PAD) include age, smoking, and hypertension, etc. , which are shared by an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). Concomitance with AAA in patients with PAD is not rare but is easily overlooked in the clinical situation, though management strategies are altered totally. This study aims to investigate diagnostic biomarkers for the prediction of AAA in patients with PAD. Methods: A total of 684 patients diagnosed with AAA and/or PAD were enrolled and analyzed retrospectively. Each patient with PAD and AAA was gender and age-matched. Demographic data, medical history, and serum laboratory test profiles were obtained. Statistical analysis was performed to determine diagnostic biomarkers of AAA in patients with PAD. Results: Firstly, 320 patients with PAD-only and 320 patients with AAA-only were compared. Levels of bilirubin and D-Dimer were decreased, while the incidence of diabetes mellitus, levels of fibrinogen, and platelet count were increased significantly in patients with PAD-only compared with those in patients with AAA-only ( Conclusions: PAD and AAA exert different clinical and serum profiles; D-dimer (>0.675 mg/L) is a reliable biomarker for the prediction of AAA in patients with PAD.
