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

Objective: To examine the cross-sectional associations of individual measures of SES-educational attainment and household income-and the joint effects of SES with PWV, as well as the SES-race interaction, in a cohort of older African American and White adults. Methods: Data from the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC) Study were used to evaluate the cross-sectional associations of individual and joint SES [education and income] and carotid femoral pulse wave velocity (cfPWV), a subclinical marker of arterial stiffness, and the interaction of SES and race using adjusted multivariable linear regression models in a cohort of 3342 men and women aged 67-89 years free of CVD in 2011-2013. Results: Participants were 64% female, 23% African American, mean cfPWV (12.3±3.5-African American and 11.6±3.9-White participants). Post-graduate education compared to less than high school was significantly associated with lower cfPWV (less stiffness) in African American ( Conclusions: Higher SES was cross-sectionally associated with lower arterial stiffness in this cohort; the data did not support differences by race. Prospective studies of SES and cfPWV are needed to efficiently compare larger racially and regionally diverse populations with a wider range of socioeconomic profiles to better identify subgroup CVD risk.
