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

backgroundThe aim of this retrospective observational study was to examine the relationship between SCORE2 and the occurrence of colonic diverticula in a screening population without cardiovascular or gastrointestinal symptoms. SCORE2, recognized and supported by the European Society of Cardiology for cardiovascular risk assessment, served as the primary metric for the analysis in this investigation.

methodsWe studied 3935 asymptomatic individuals undergoing screening colonoscopy. SCORE2 was calculated for each participant and categorized into three groups based on the following projected 10-year cardiovascular disease risk: SCORE2 0-4.9%, SCORE2 5-9.9%, and SCORE2 ≥ 10%. Logistic regression was used to assess the relationship between SCORE2 and diverticulosis.

resultsSCORE2 was associated with the presence of diverticulosis (OR 1.09, 95%CI 1.07-1.10;

conclusionsA higher SCORE2 was found to be a suitable screening parameter for diverticular disease. This suggests a potential link between cardiovascular risk factors and colon diverticula development, warranting further research on whether optimizing cardiovascular risk factors could positively influence diverticular disease.
