Real-World Racial Variation in Treatment and Outcomes Among Patients with Peripheral Artery Disease.
Article in Advances in therapy, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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.
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
introductionPrior studies have found considerable disparities in prevalence and outcomes for patients with peripheral arterial disease (PAD). This study compared rates of diagnostic testing, treatment patterns, and outcomes after diagnosis of PAD among commercially insured Black and White patients in the United States.
methodsOptum's de-identified Clinformatics
resultsA total of 669,939 patients were identified, with 454,382 White patients and 96,162 Black patients. Black patients were younger on average (71.8 years vs. 74.2 years), but had higher comorbid burden, concomitant risk factors, and CV medication use at baseline. Prevalence of diagnostic testing, revascularization procedures, and medication use was numerically higher among Black patients. Black patients were also more likely than the White patients to receive medical therapy without a revascularization procedure [adjusted odds ratio with 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.47 (1.44-1.49)]. However, Black patients with PAD had higher incidence of MALE and CV events than White patients [adjusted hazard ratio for composite event (95% CI) = 1.13, (1.11-1.15)]. Except myocardial infarction, the hazards of individual components of MALE and CV events were also significantly higher among Black patients with PAD.
conclusionsResults of this real-world study suggest that Black patients with PAD have higher disease severity at the time of diagnosis and are at increased risk of experiencing adverse outcomes following diagnosis.
