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

Introduction: The aim of this study was to evaluate the global, gender, and age-related cardiovascular disease (CVD) burden during 2010-2019. Not only the global trend in the prevalence of CVDs was studied but also whether there was a statistically significant difference between genders and ages during 2010-2019. Material and methods: Detailed information from 2010 to 2019, including global rates of prevalence of 11 categories of CVD, was collected from the Global Burden of Disease Study 2019. The statistical methods used to analyze the results of this study are the independent samples Results: The global prevalence rate of CVDs increased from 0.061% in 2010 to 0.070% in 2019. There was a statistically significant difference in prevalence rates between genders in all cardiovascular diseases except atrial fibrillation and flutter. Females have higher prevalence rates of CVDs worldwide. Moreover, females have statistically significantly higher prevalence rates of stroke, hypertensive heart disease, rheumatic heart disease, non-rheumatic valvular heart disease, endocarditis, peripheral artery disease and other cardiovascular and circulatory diseases globally. On the other hand, males have statistically significantly higher prevalence rates of cardiomyopathy and myocarditis, and ischemic heart disease globally. Rheumatic heart disease has a statistically significantly higher prevalence rate in the age group of 25-49 years than the other age groups. Conclusions: The significance of this study is not only that it has succeeded in evaluating the global, gender, and age-related cardiovascular disease (CVD) burden, finding statistically significant associations, but it is also the only study to achieve this goal in the last decade.
