Hidradenitis Suppurativa and Risk of Coronary Artery Disease: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
Article in Indian journal of dermatology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Background: Patients with hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) may have a higher risk of coronary artery disease (CAD) due to the excessive inflammatory burden. However, data on this association is still relatively limited. Aims: To investigate the association between HS and risk of prevalent and incident CAD by combining result from all available studies using systematic review and meta-analysis technique. Materials and Methods: Potentially eligible studies were identified from Medline and EMBASE databases from inception to November 2021 using search strategy that comprised of terms for 'hidradenitis suppurativa' (HS) and 'coronary artery disease' (CAD). Eligible study must be cohort study that consisted of one cohort of patients with HS and another cohort of individuals without HS. The study must report incidence or prevalence of CAD in both groups. The retrieved point estimates with standard errors from each study were summarized into pooled result using random-effect model and generic inverse variance method. Meta-analyses of the prevalent and incident CAD were conducted separately. Results: A total of 876 articles were identified. After two rounds of independent review by three investigators, seven cohort studies (four incident studies and three prevalent studies) met the eligibility criteria and were analysed in the meta-analyses. The meta-analysis found a significantly elevated risk of both incident and prevalent CAD in patients with HS compared to individuals without psoriasis with the pooled risk ratio of 1.38 (95% CI, 1.21-1.58; I Limitations: Limited accuracy of diagnosis of HS and CSD as most included studies relied on diagnostic codes and high between-study statistical heterogeneity. Conclusions: The current systematic review and meta-analysis found a significantly increased risk of both prevalent and incident CAD among patients with HS.
