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

backgroundHepatic steatosis (HS) and 10-year atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) risk ≥ 7.5% are associated with increased risk for cardiovascular events.

aimTo assess underlying coronary artery disease (CAD) and major adverse cardiovascular event (MACE) among those with and without HS at different ASCVD risk.

methodsWe evaluated stable chest pain patients receiving coronary computed tomography (CT) in the PROMISE trial. HS and CAD endpoints were defined on coronary CT. MACE was defined as unstable angina, non-fatal myocardial infarction, and all-cause death. Multivariable Cox regression, adjusting for CAD characteristics, assessed the association of HS with MACE for ASCVD < 7.5%.

resultsOne thousand two hundred and four of 3702 (32.5%) patients were at ASCVD < 7.5% and 20.3% (244/1204) of them had HS. Individuals with HS were younger (54.3 ± 5.2 vs. 55.8 ± 5.2; p < 0.001), more often males (40.2% [98/244] vs. 27.1% [260/960]; p < 0.001), had more risk factors/person (2.06 ± 0.89 vs. 1.93 ± 0.91; p = 0.047). CAD characteristics were similar between HS vs. non-HS patients at ASCVD < 7.5% and ASCVD ≥ 7.5% (all p > 0.05). Patients with HS had greater MACE rate compared to non-HS patients (ASCVD < 7.5%: 3.75%[9/244] vs. 1.5% [14/960]; p = 0.027 and ASCVD ≥ 7.5%: 4.7% [33/696] vs. 3.1% [56/1802]; p = 0.043). In patients without HS, MACE rate was higher in the ASCVD ≥ 7.5% vs. < 7.5% (3.1% [56/1802] vs. 1.5% [14/960]; p = 0.011). In patients with HS, MACE rates were not significantly different between ASCVD ≥ 7.5% vs. < 7.5% (4.7% [33/696] vs. 3.7% [9/244]; p = 0.484). In ASCVD < 7.5%, HS predicted MACE (aHR:2.34, 95%CI:1.01-5.43; p = 0.048), independent of CAD characteristics.

conclusionsIndividuals with HS at ASCVD < 7.5% risk had similar CAD characteristics as patients without HS at < 7.5% ASCVD risk, yet experienced comparable MACE rates as those at ASCVD ≥ 7.5%.
