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

Cardiovascular risk was evaluated in patients admitted to rural inpatient psychiatric services over a one-year period in a sparsely populated region of the United Kingdom. Care records were analysed for risk factor recording, and cardiovascular risk estimated using the QRISK3 calculator, which estimates 10-year risk of myocardial infarction or stroke. Of eligible patients, risk factor recording as part of routine care was completed in 86% of possible QRISK3 inputs, enabling QIRSK3 estimation in all eligible patients. QRISK3 for this group was significantly raised relative to an age, sex and ethnicity-matched population, and high risk of cardiovascular disease (QRISK3 score >10%) was detected in 28% of patients. The results demonstrate that there is significant unmet need in rural patients for cardiovascular risk reduction that could be identified as part of routine care. An opportunity exists to integrate mental and physical healthcare by routinely assessing cardiovascular risk in rural psychiatric inpatients. Resources and training are needed to produce this risk information and act on it.
