Exploring the Prognostic Role of Red Blood Cell Distribution Width in Aortic Valve Calcification Evaluations via Multi-Slice Computed Tomography.
Article in Reviews in cardiovascular medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Background: Previous reports have indicated an association between red blood cell distribution width (RDW) and cardiovascular disease. However, few relevant studies exist on the relationship between RDW and aortic valve calcification (AVC). Explore the correlation and predictive value of RDW concerning the occurrence and severity of aortic valve calcification. Methods: Blood examination results were analyzed from 1720 hospitalized patients at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University. Logistic regression analysis and the Cox proportional hazards model examined the relationship between RDW and the incidence and severity of AVC. Results: The RDW value in cases with AVC was significantly higher than in the control group. Red cell distribution width-standard deviation (RDW-SD) and red cell distribution width-coefficient of variation (RDW-CV) increased with calcification severity. Both RDW-SD and RDW-CV demonstrated high predictive values for the occurrence of aortic valve calcification. Conclusions: Red blood cell distribution width significantly correlated with the occurrence and severity of aortic valve calcification.
