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

aimsThis study aimed to examine the association between cardiovascular health (CVH) metrics and the risk of heart failure (HF) in a Finnish population. METHODS AND

resultsWe used the prospective population-based Kuopio Ischaemic Heart Disease cohort study comprising men aged 42-60 years at baseline (1984-89) and women aged 53-73 years at baseline (1998-2001). The CVH scores were computed from American Heart Association's CVH metrics for 2385 men and 825 women without a history of HF at baseline. The CVH scores, ranging from 0 to 14, were categorized into three: inadequate, average, and optimal groups. Multivariable Cox regression models were used to estimate the hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for HF. During a median follow-up period of 27 years for men, and 18 years for women, 465 and 124 HF events were recorded, respectively. The mean ages for men and women were 53 and 63 years, respectively. One hundred and thirty-three men (5.6%) and 73 women (8.8%) had five or more ideal CVH metrics. Participants with optimal CVH scores had a 64% and 48% lower risk of HF when compared with those with inadequate CVH scores among men and women, respectively (HR, 95% CI: men = 0.36, 0.26-0.49, P < 0.01; women = 0.52, 0.31-0.89, P = 0.02).

conclusionsOptimal CVH metrics is associated with a lower risk of HF among an ageing Finnish population. Optimal CVH score should be targeted among the general population to reduce the risk of HF.
