Pulse Wave Velocity for Risk Stratification of Patients with Aortic Aneurysm.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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: Patients with an aortic aneurysm are at high cardiovascular risk. Pulse wave velocity (PWV) is used as a parameter for risk stratification but may be affected by aortic disease (AoD). This study aimed to investigate the dependence of PWV on treated or untreated AoD and to identify modifiable factors of PWV. Methods: The measurement of PWV with the Mobil-O-Graph was performed fully automatically in a collective of 381 patients (75.6% male and 24.4% female). Of all patients, 53.8% had nonaortic atherosclerotic vascular disease (AVD), 28.9% had treated AoD, and 17.3% had untreated AoD. Results: There was a statistically significant effect of age (R2 = 0.838) and current systolic blood pressure (SBP) on PWV (page corrected < 0.05). After correction for age, no statistically significant difference was found between the PWV of men and women, patients with different body weights or degrees of chronic kidney disease, diabetics and nondiabetics, and smokers and nonsmokers. Comparison between patients with nonaortic AVD and treated or untreated AoD revealed no statistically significant differences (PWVnonaortic AVD 10.0 ± 1.8 m/s, PWVtreated AoD 10.0 ± 1.5 m/s, PWVuntreated AoD 9.8 ± 1.6 m/s; page corrected > 0.05). Conclusions: PWV determined with the Mobil-O-Graph correlated with age and current SBP. Neither aortic disease versus nonaortic AVD, its treatment, nor other cardiovascular risk factors had a significant effect on PWV. Successful blood pressure control is crucial to avoid high PWV and thus an increase in cardiovascular events.
