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

Endothelial dysfunction may contribute to the increased morbidity and mortality associated with coronary heart disease (CHD). Flow-mediated dilatation (FMD) is the most popular noninvasive method for vascular endothelial function evaluation. This meta-analysis aimed to investigate the association between FMD and CHD. We searched the publications listed in the PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, and Embase databases. Stata 14 software was used to analyze the data. Standardized mean difference (SMD) was used to calculate FMD levels, and the effect sizes were expressed with a 95% confidence interval (CI). I
