Skin Autofluorescence and Clinical Outcomes in Patients with Coronary Artery Disease.
Article in Journal of atherosclerosis and thrombosis, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
aimThis study aimed to investigate whether skin autofluorescence (SAF) is associated with clinical outcomes in patients with coronary artery disease. Advanced glycation end products (AGE) play a crucial role in atherosclerosis. Accumulation of AGE can be measured non-invasively by SAF.
methodsWe performed a single-center prospective study of 896 patients with coronary artery disease treated with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) between January 2014 and December 2015. SAF was measured before the PCI procedure. The primary endpoint was patient-oriented composite endpoints (POCE) defined as a composite of all-cause death, any myocardial infarction, any stroke, and any revascularization.
resultsPatients were significantly older and suffered higher rates of chronic kidney disease (CKD) in the high SAF group. A higher SAF was associated with an increased risk for POCE (HR 1.43; 95% CI 1.19-1.71, p＜0.001) that was mainly driven by any coronary revascularization (HR 1.33; 95% CI 1.08-1.65, p=0.01) including target lesion revascularization (HR 1.41; 95% CI 1.02-1.94, p=0.04). The higher SAF group also experienced worse outcomes in stroke (HR 2.08; 95% CI 1.38-3.15, p=0.001). Multivariate analyses indicated that SAF was an independent predictor of POCE (HR 1.36; 95% CI 1.13-1.63, p=0.001).
conclusionsSAF as a measure of AGE deposition is independently associated with cardiovascular events amongst patients with coronary artery disease treated with PCI. SAF also predicts the incidence of restenosis and stroke.
