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

The aim of our study was to assess the effect of blood cadmium levels (B-Cd) on abdominal aortic calcification (AAC). We used the data from the 2013-2014 NHANES database. A total of 1530 participants were included in our study, with a mean AAC score of 1.40 ± 0.10, and a prevalence of severe AAC of 7.98%. Participants with higher B-Cd quartiles showed a higher prevalence of severe AAC. B-Cd was positively associated with higher AAC scores and increased risk of severe AAC. In the obese population, blood cadmium levels showed a positive association with the risk of severe AAC. There may be a positive correlation between B-Cd levels and AAC scores and risk of severe AAC, and this correlation is more pronounced in the obese population. Therefore, the cadmium load in AAC patients in the obese population should be considered in clinical work.
