Assessment of cardiovascular risk factors in patients with idiopathic inflammatory myopathies: a systematic review.
Synthesis in Clinical rheumatology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
We performed a systematic review of cardiovascular risk factors in idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIMs) and their cardiovascular outcomes, including acute coronary syndrome and stroke. A qualitative systematic review was conducted from January 1956 to December 2022 according to the PRISMA protocol using three electronic databases: PubMed, Web of Science, and Scopus. The studies were analyzed based on the following eligibility criteria: at least one combination of the terms described in the search strategy appeared in the title, written in English, Portuguese, or Spanish, and addressed risk factors for cardiovascular diseases in IIMs. Brief reports, reviews, papers addressing juvenile IIMs, congress proceedings, monographs, and dissertations were excluded. Twenty articles were included. According to the literature, most patients with IIMs are middle-aged North American or Asian women, with dyslipidemia and hypertension. The prevalence of the cardiovascular risk factors was generally low in IIMs, but with a high incidence of acute myocardial infarction. Further theoretical and prospective studies are needed to define the actual impact of each variable (e.g., hypertension, diabetes, smoking, alcoholism, obesity, and dyslipidemia) on the cardiovascular risk of patients with IIMs.
