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

The present study was primarily designed to validate the modified Haller index (MHI), the ratio of chest transverse diameter over the distance between sternum and spine, measured by a ruler and transthoracic echocardiography (TTE), respectively, in a cohort of subjects with obesity, but otherwise healthy, by comparing the results to the conventional Haller index (HI) measured on chest X-ray (CXR). 100 consecutive subjects with body mass index (BMI) ≥ 30 kg/m
