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

Introduction: Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) and their cellular receptors (RAGEs) play an important role in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes mellitus and its progression to cardiovascular disease (CVD). A marker of the AGE-RAGE axis, soluble RAGE (sRAGE), was examined in this study in various glycemic states as well as in low- and high-CVD-risk patients. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 25 adults were recruited into each of the "Normoglycemic", "Prediabetic", and "Diabetic" groups based on American Diabetes Association 2019 HbA1c% level criteria. Using online American Heart Association Atherosclerotic CVD (AHA ASCVD) risk calculator and guidelines, patients were classified into "Low" and "High" risk categories. Serum sRAGE was assayed using sandwich ELISA technology. Serum markers necessary for calculation of homeostatic model assessment for insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) and atherogenic index of plasma (AIP) were spectrophotometrically estimated. Carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT) was analyzed using B-mode carotid ultrasonography. Results: Mann-Whitney U analysis showed that sRAGE, AIP, HOMA-IR, CIMT, and %10-year CVD risk values were significantly different in the two ASCVD risk categories. Spearman test showed a significant correlation between sRAGE and other markers. ROC curve analysis demonstrated a higher area under the curve for sRAGE than other known parameters to differentiate between ASCVD risk categories. Finally, odds ratio analysis showed that sRAGE had higher odds of detecting high CVD risk than AIP or CIMT. Conclusions: Our study has demonstrated the possible role of sRAGE in CVD development and suggests that they may serve as screening markers for future CVD risk.
