Sex Differences in Outcomes of Adults With Isolated Coarctation of the Aorta.
Article in CJC open, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background: Data are limited about the effect (or lack thereof) of sex on clinical outcomes in adults with coarctation of the aorta (COA). The purpose of this study was to compare atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) risk profile, blood pressure (BP) data, echocardiographic indices, and mortality between men and women with COA. Methods: Retrospective study of adults with COA, and no associated left-sided obstructive lesions, who received care at Mayo Clinic (2003-2022). ASCVD risk profile was assessed as the prevalence of hypertension, hyperlipidemia, type 2 diabetes, obesity, smoking history, and coronary artery disease. A 24-hour BP monitor was used to assess daytime and nighttime BP and calculate nocturnal dipping. Results: Of 621 patients with isolated COA, 375 (60%) were men, and 246 (40%) were women. Women had similar ASCVD risk profile and daytime BP as men. However, women had less nocturnal dipping (7 ± 5 mm Hg vs 16 ± 7 mm Hg, Conclusions: Women had a higher risk of both cardiovascular mortality and all-cause mortality compared to the risks in men. This difference may be related to the higher-than-expected ASCVD risk factors, abnormal nocturnal blood pressure, and pulmonary hypertension observed in women in this cohort. Further studies are required to identify optimal measures to address these risk factors.
