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

aimsPlasma S-adenosylhomocysteine (SAH) level is positively associated with cardiovascular risk. However, the relationship between plasma SAH levels and the risk of all-cause and cardiovascular mortality remains unknown. This study aimed to explore the relationship between plasma SAH levels and the risk of all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD).

methodsPlasma SAH levels were measured in 1553 patients with CAD. The association between plasma SAH level and the risk of all-cause and cardiovascular mortality was estimated using Cox Proportional hazards regression models.

resultsRelative to participants in the lowest quartile of plasma SAH levels, those in the highest quartile of plasma SAH levels had a higher risk of all-cause death (adjusted Hazard Ratio [HR], 2.15; 95% CI, 1.54-3.01; P<0.001) and cardiovascular death (adjusted HR, 2.20; 95% CI, 1.49-3.25; P=0.001) in the age- and sex-adjusted model. The results of the multivariable adjusted analysis were similar (all-cause death [adjusted HR, 1.81; 95% CI, 1.27-2.58; P=0.002] and cardiovascular death [adjusted HR, 1.84; 95% CI, 1.21-2.79; P=0.031]). The age- and sex-adjusted HRs for each 1 SD increase in plasma SAH level were 1.30 (95% CI, 1.22-1.38) for all-cause mortality, and 1.34 (95% CI, 1.25-1.43) for cardiovascular mortality, respectively. A 1 SD increase in the SAH level was associated with a 25% higher risk of total death (adjusted HR, 1.25; 95% CI, 1.17-1.34) and a 29% greater risk of cardiovascular death (adjusted HR, 1.29; 95% CI, 1.20-1.39) in multivariable adjusted analysis.

conclusionsWe found that the plasma SAH level is positively correlated with the risk of all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in patients with CAD in both age- and sex-adjusted and multivariable-adjusted models.
