Cardiovascular Prognosis in Patients with Peripheral Artery Disease and Approach to Therapy.
Review in Biomedicines, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Peripheral artery disease (PAD), the pathophysiologic narrowing of the arterial blood vessels of the lower limbs due to atherosclerosis, is estimated to affect more than 200 million people worldwide and its prevalence ranges from 0.9 to 31.3% in people aged ≥50 years. It is an established marker of systemic obstructive atherosclerosis, which depicts patients at higher risk of myocardial infarction and stroke, due to the involvement of coronary and cerebral arteries in the atherosclerotic process. Therefore, identifying PAD, particularly in patients with coronary artery disease, is important to assess the cardiovascular risk score and implement specific therapies and prevention strategies. Since PAD emerged as an important clinical cardiovascular predictor, even more than other typical cardiovascular risk factors, an aggressive strategy to identify and treat PAD patients should be pursued by general practitioners, cardiologists, and vascular surgeons; similarly, preventive strategies should be implemented to improve prognosis and outcomes, particularly in patients suffering from both coronary artery disease and PAD. In this review, we describe the pathophysiology, including limb vasoconstriction after coronary angioplasty, the diagnosis of PAD, prognosis according to cardiovascular events, coronary artery disease, and heart failure. Furthermore, a large section of this review is on management, which spans from risk factors' modification to antithrombotic therapy, and revascularization is provided. Finally, considerations about newer therapeutic options for the "desert foot" are discussed, including gene therapy.
