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

Coronary artery calcium (CAC) is a validated marker of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) risk; however, it is not routinely incorporated in ASCVD risk prediction in older adults with diabetes. We sought to assess the CAC distribution among this demographic and its association with "diabetes-specific risk enhancers," which are known to be associated with increased ASCVD risk. We used the ARIC (Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities) study data, including adults aged >75 years with diabetes, who had their CAC measured at ARIC visit 7 (2018 to 2019). The demographic characteristics of participants and their CAC distribution were analyzed using descriptive statistics. Multivariable-adjusted logistic regression models were used to estimate the association between diabetes-specific risk enhancers (duration of diabetes, albuminuria, chronic kidney disease, retinopathy, neuropathy, and ankle-brachial index) and elevated CAC, adjusting for age, gender, race, education level, dyslipidemia, hypertension, physical activity, smoking status, and family history of coronary heart disease. The mean age in our sample was 79.9 (SD 3.97) years, with 56.6% women and 62.1% White. The CAC scores were heterogenous, and the median CAC score was higher in participants with a greater number of diabetes risk enhancers, regardless of gender. In the multivariable-adjusted logistic regression models, participants with ≥2 diabetes-specific risk enhancers had greater odds of elevated CAC than those with <2 (odds ratio 2.31, 95% confidence interval 1.34 to 3.98). In conclusion, the distribution of CAC was heterogeneous among older adults with diabetes, with the CAC burden associated with the number of diabetes risk-enhancing factors present. These data may have implications for prognostication in older patients with diabetes and supports the possible incorporation of CAC in the assessment of cardiovascular disease risk in this population.
