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

backgroundEvidence on the effects of occupation categories on cardiovascular disease (CVD) progression and longevity has mostly come from cross-sectional studies, which limits our understanding of the pathogenesis of CVD. This study aimed to evaluate the associations of occupation categories with CVD and all-cause mortality in the American population.

methodsWe analyzed data from the 2005-2014 U.S. National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES), a large-scale public health survey representative of the U.S. population, linked to mortality data obtained in 2019. To evaluate the association between occupation categories and the risks of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and all-cause mortality, we estimated Cox proportional hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs).

resultsAmong 11,102 participants (aged 20-85 years, 53.99% male), 132 died from CVD among the total 478 deaths during a median follow-up of 9.9 years. In multivariable-adjusted models, the occupation categories were significantly associated with CVD mortality, with the hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) of 3.95(1.94-8.04) for construction and clean-up industry, 2.51(1.15-5.52) for sales and service industry, 2.49(1.04-5.95) for business and management, and 2.98(1.56,5.71) for others. For all-cause mortality, only construction and clean-up industry and sales and service industry were positively associated with all-cause mortality, and HRs (95% CIs) were 2.05(1.33-3.16) and 1.64(1.12-2.41). Both working hours in the previous week and the number of months worked exhibited varying degrees of dose-response relationships with CVD and all-cause mortality.

conclusionsOccupation categories were found to be significantly associated with the risk of CVD and all-cause mortality. Future research could incorporate different work properties into specific prevention strategies for these outcomes.
