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

Background: Cardiovascular disease continues to be the primary cause of premature mortality in women, who previously have been overlooked in clinical trials. Several studies showed that women undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) present more cardiovascular risk factors at baseline, develop more postprocedural complications, and have a higher mortality rate than men. The goal of this review is to analyze the difference between men and women in terms of the prevalence of individual cardiovascular risk factors. Methods: A meta-analysis was conducted of original investigations with adult subjects who underwent surgical intervention or PCIs in which cardiovascular risk factors were evaluated, using the MEDLINE, Cochrane, Evidence-Based Medicine Reviews (EBMR), Ovid Embase, Google Scholar, and PubMed databases. Results: Of the 4567 identified records found, 18 were retained for qualitative analysis. Prevalence of hypertension (CABG: 71% (95% confidence interval [CI] 64%, 78%]); PCI: (59% [95% CI 48%,70%]), and diabetes (CABG: 48% [95% CI 38%, 57%]); PCI 43% (95% CI 27%, 59%]) was high in women. Women who underwent either CABG or PCI had higher odds of having hypertension (CABG: odds ratio [OR] 1.92 [95% CI 1.47-2.50], Conclusion: The review shows that women who underwent either surgical or percutaneous revascularization had higher odds of hypertension and diabetes, compared to men.
