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 diseases are the leading cause of death among patients on hemodialysis, with approximately 40% of the cardiovascular deaths linked to acute coronary syndrome. We aimed to investigate the incidence and risk factors of acute coronary syndrome in patients undergoing hemodialysis. Methods: Patients undergoing hemodialysis were prospectively enrolled from January 2018. Data regarding hospitalization due to acute coronary syndrome were collected at 3-month intervals through December 31, 2021. Cox regression model was used to estimate the association between baseline factors and incident acute coronary syndrome during follow-up. Results: Patients' mean age was 66 years, 48% were men, and 16% had a history of coronary artery disease at enrolment. Over a median follow-up of 1,187 days, 85 patients were hospitalized due to acute coronary syndrome. Left main or triple vessel disease was identified in 67 patients. Risk factors associated with incident acute coronary syndrome included aging, male sex, smoking, low diastolic blood pressure, and baseline comorbidities, in addition to dialysis factors including low urea clearance, central venous catheter use, and history of dialysis access dysfunction. After multivariate analysis, age, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, smoking, and frequent interventions for vascular access remained significant risk factors. Conclusions: A high acute coronary syndrome incidence was observed in our cohort, with traditional risk factors playing a consistent role with that in the general population. A history of frequent dialysis access dysfunction was also associated with incident acute coronary syndrome.
