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

backgroundStudies on cannabis use and adverse cardiovascular outcomes have reported conflicting results. Research on its relationship to calcified arterial plaque remains limited.

methodsCross-sectional data from 2152 participants at Exam 6 (2016-2018) in the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis (MESA) were analyzed, including self-reported cannabis smoking patterns and carotid artery calcification (CAC) as measured via computed tomography. Multivariable relative and absolute risk regression models were used to estimate adjusted prevalence ratios (PRs) and prevalence differences, respectively, for the presence of calcified plaque. Multivariable linear regression was then used to compare group differences in the extent of CAC in those with calcified plaque.

resultsA minority of participants (

conclusionsIn a racially and ethnically diverse cohort of older adults with a moderately high prevalence of CAC, no associations were found between a history of regular cannabis smoking, duration, or recency of cannabis smoking, and the prevalence of carotid calcified plaque. These findings were consistent across age, race/ethnicity, and cigarette smoking, except for an increased prevalence in men with a history of regular cannabis smoking. Similarly, in a subgroup with CAC, no association was found between a history of regular cannabis smoking and extent of calcification as measured by volume, density, and Agatston score.
