Serum immunoglobulin M is associated with the severity of coronary artery disease in adults.

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
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between serum immunoglobulin M (IgM) and the severity of coronary artery disease in Chinese patients who underwent coronary angiography. Methods: A total of 2,045 patients who underwent coronary angiography (CAG) from March 2017 to March 2020 at Beijing Hospital were included in this study. Serum IgM concentration and biochemical indicators were measured before coronary angiography (CAG). The triquartile IgM levels at baseline in the population were analysed. Spearman rank correlation was used to analyse the association between IgM and traditional risk factors for coronary artery disease (CAD). CAD patients were divided into subgroups by affected area, number of affected vessels, and Gensini score to analyse the relationship between IgM and CAD severity. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was used to evaluate the association between IgM and CAD severity. Results: Serum IgM levels were significantly lower in the CAD group (63.5 mg/dL) than in the non-coronary artery disease (NCAD) group (72.3 mg/dL) ( Conclusion: We determined that serum IgM was independently negatively associated with the severity of CAD diagnosed by angiography in Chinese adults.
