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

Abdominal visceral adipose tissue (AVAT) is associated with the incidence of cardiovascular events (CVEs). We retrospectively evaluated the association between AVAT and the incidence of CVEs in 602 patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Patients were divided into four groups according to the quartiles of AVAT areas using computed tomography. The incidence of CVEs (cardiovascular death, ACS recurrence and stroke) during the follow-up period (median 49.5 months) was evaluated. Cox analysis adjusting for cardiovascular risk factors revealed that the AVAT quartile classification exhibited a significant association with the incidence of CVEs. The risk in quartile 3 (moderate AVAT areas, ≥ 106.0 to < 142.6 cm
