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

Glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency (G6PD-d) is the most common enzymopathy in the world, occurring in 5-8% of the global population (half a billion people). Recent epidemiological evidence suggests that G6PD-d may be associated with increased cardiovascular disease (CVD). Atherosclerosis is the dominant cause of CVD, including myocardial infarction, heart failure, stroke, and peripheral artery disease. Atherosclerosis, in turn, is a chronic inflammatory disease, fueled by oxidized lipids and influenced by various immune and nonimmune cells including vascular endothelial and smooth muscle cells, monocytes and macrophages, T cells, B cells, and red blood cells. Here, we review the existing epidemiological evidence supporting a role for G6PD-d in CVD in humans and explore the data on potential cellular mechanisms by which G6PD-d may exacerbate atherosclerosis.
