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 and aims: This study aimed to examine whether the combination of elevated-C-reactive protein (CRP) levels and hypertension increased the risk of stroke among middle-aged and elderly Chinese. Methods: This analysis included 9,821 Chinese participants aged ≥45 years in the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS). Data based on three waves of CHARLS were used (2011, 2013, and 2015). Multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression models were used to estimate hazard ratios (HRs) with a 95% confidence interval (95%CI) of new-onset stroke risk according to elevated-CRP level and hypertension. Moreover, the area under the curve (AUC), net reclassification index (NRI), and integrated discrimination improvement (IDI) were used to evaluate the incremental predictive value. Results: A total of 184 stroke events occurred during follow-up. The median follow-up time was 4 years. Compared with those with normal CRP levels (CRP ≤ 3 mg /L) and blood pressure, the adjusted HRs and 95%CI were 1.86 (0.90-3.85) for individuals with elevated-CRP levels alone, 2.70 (1.71-4.28) for those with hypertension alone, and 4.80 (2.83-8.12) for those with comorbid elevated-CRP levels and hypertension. People with the coexistence of elevated-CRP levels and hypertension had the highest risk of new-onset stroke among all subgroup analyses. Finally, adding the combination of elevated-CRP levels and hypertension to conventional factors significantly improved the risk prediction for new-onset stroke. Conclusion: Our findings indicate that the combined effect of elevated-CRP levels and hypertension increase the risk of new-onset stroke among the middle-aged and geriatric Chinese population.
