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

objectiveThe fibrinogen/albumin ratio (FAR) is a novel inflammatory indicator, which has been associated with cardiovascular disease. However, the relationship between FAR and cardiovascular event (CVE) in patients with peritoneal dialysis (PD) remains unclear. This study aims to clarify the relationship between FAR and first-ever CVE in patients with PD.

methodsA total of 278 patients were enrolled between January 2012 and June 2021. They were defined as the high FAR group and the low FAR group based on the median FAR value (0.107). The primary outcome was the occurrence of first-ever CVE. Kaplan-Meier's curves and Cox regression analysis were used to analyse the relationship between FAR and first-ever CVE in patients with PD. Forest plots were employed to depict the relationship between FAR and first-ever CVE in each subgroup.

resultsThe average follow-up period was 40.26 ± 28.27 months. A total of 101 (36.3%) patients developed first-ever CVE. Kaplan-Meier's analysis showed that there was a higher risk of first-ever CVE (

conclusionsHigh levels of FAR are independently associated with an increased risk of first-ever CVE in patients with PD.
