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

Few studies have genetically screened variants related to familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) and investigated their survival impact in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) and reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (EF). Patients with CAD and reduced EF (< 40%) were enrolled. Their genomic DNAs were sequenced for FH-related genes. All-cause and cardiovascular mortality data served as the major outcome. A total of 256 subjects were analyzed and 12 subjects (4.7%) carried FH-related genetic variants. After a median follow-up period of 44 months, 119 of the study subjects died. Cox survival analysis showed that carrying the FH genetic variant did not have a significant impact on the survival of CAD with reduced EF. However, higher estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), better EF and beta blocker use were protective for a lower all-cause mortality. Further larger studies are needed to evaluate the impact of carrying the FH-related genetic variant on survival of CAD with reduced EF.
