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

Secondary prevention in coronary heart disease is the prevention of occurrence of recurrent coronary events after clinical diagnosis. High level of adherence to secondary prevention interventions, especially aggressive lifestyle changes and pharmacotherapy can lead to significant decline in recurrent coronary events. Both international and Indian studies have reported low adherence to such therapies. Evidence-based useful interventions include regular physical activity, yoga, intake of healthy diet, smoking and tobacco use cessation and weight management. Pharmacotherapeutic interventions useful are anti-platelet therapy, target oriented lipid lowering therapy with statins, beta blockers and angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors in patients with impaired left ventricular function. Hypertension and diabetes management with control to targets is important. Novel strategies include use of anticoagulants, anti-inflammatory drugs, and triglyceride lowering for residual risk. Physician and patient level interventions using multifaceted educational, socioeconomic and technological innovations are important to promote life-long adherence to these strategies.
