Association between Life's Essential 8 and rheumatoid arthritis.
Article in Clinical rheumatology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
backgroundRheumatoid arthritis (RA) exhibits a robust association with cardiovascular disease. Our study aims to elucidate the correlation between RA prevalence and Life's Essential 8 (LE8), a recently updated measure of cardiovascular health (CVH). METHODS AND
resultsWe conducted a population-based cross-sectional study using data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) spanning from 2007 to 2018. Utilizing multivariable logistic and restricted cubic spline models, we explored the relationship between LE8 and RA. Our analysis included 17,263 participants. We found that higher LE8 scores were closely associated with reduced odds of RA (odds ratio for each 10-point increase, 0.91 (95% CI, 0.75-0.87)). Furthermore, we observed a nonlinear association between LE8 and RA after adjusting for potential confounders. Specifically, higher scores for sleep health, nicotine exposure, body mass index, and blood pressure within the LE8 components were significantly correlated with a lower risk of RA. Additionally, the inverse relationship between LE8 scores and RA was notably stronger among young and female individuals.
conclusionOur findings suggest a negative correlation between LE8 and RA prevalence, indicating that adherence to the lifestyle defined by LE8 may confer protective effects against RA.
