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

Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the leading cause of death worldwide in both men and women. Accordingly, we retrospectively reviewed the effects of various risk factors on coronary angiographic outcomes. Data were collected from the catheter lab through Tripoli University Hospital records, whereas the team reviewed clinical data and coronary artery diagrams for 1 year from 01/04/2019 to 31/03/2020. In our study, the total number of cases was 666, 401 male and 265 female, aged between 27 and 91 years. Our analysis revealed a significantly higher incidence of CAD among male smokers under 60. Conversely, a majority of nonsmoker patients were female. The most common risk factors for women were diabetes mellitus (DM) and hypertension (HTN) (12% and 13%, respectively). While the men share the significant effects of smoking on coronary angiography (C. Angio) findings (40.52%), most of them underwent a percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). In our study, there was evidence that CAD is a prevalent disease among middle-aged populations with male gender preference. The risk factors, including diabetes, HTN, and smoking, are the most contributing factors for developing CAD in Libya.
