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

contextData on cardiovascular outcomes in patients with chronic hypoparathyroidism (hypoPT) are limited.

objectiveTo investigate the risk of cardiovascular outcomes, acute myocardial infarction, atrial fibrillation/flutter, heart failure, valvular heart disease, peripheral artery disease, and stroke/transient ischemic attack (TIA) in patients with chronic hypoPT.

designThe Swedish National Patient Registry, the Swedish Prescribed Drug Registry, and the Total Population Registry, 1997-2018. SETTINGS: Population-based cohort study in Sweden. PATIENTS: National registries were used to identify patients with chronic hypoPT and matched controls.

resultsA total of 1982 with chronic hypoPT and 19 499 controls were included. After adjustment for cardiovascular risk factors, patients with chronic hypoPT had higher risk of valvular heart disease [hazard ratio (HR) 2.08; 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.67-2.60], peripheral artery disease (HR 1.78; 95% CI 1.41-2.26), heart failure (HR 1.66; 95% CI 1.44-1.90), atrial fibrillation/flutter (HR 1.58; 95% CI 1.38-1.81), acute myocardial infarction (HR 1.31; 95% CI 1.05-1.64), and fatal cardiovascular disease (HR 1.59; 95% CI 1.40-1.80) compared to matched controls. No significant difference in risk of stroke/TIA was observed. Cardiovascular outcomes did not differ between patients with surgical and nonsurgical chronic hypoPT. Females with hypoPT had a significantly increased risk of valvular heart disease, peripheral artery disease, heart failure, atrial fibrillation, myocardial infarction, and fatal cardiovascular disease compared to female controls. There were no differences in any cardiovascular outcomes between males with hypoPT and male controls.

conclusionThe risk of cardiovascular diseases was increased in patients with chronic hypoPT, particularly among women. These findings highlight the need for close monitoring and preventive management of cardiovascular risk factors, especially in women.
