County-level modeled extreme heat risk and premature all-cause mortality related to cardio-kidney-metabolic syndrome in the United States: A cross-sectional analysis.

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.
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
Background: The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between extreme heat waves and age adjusted cardio-kidney-metabolic (CKM) all-cause mortality rate in the US. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, the county level age adjusted CKM premature (age < 65 years) all-cause mortality rate (CKM aaMR) was collected from the Center for Diseases Control (CDC) WONDER (Wide-ranging Online Data for Epidemiologic Research) (2010-2019). The primary exposure was the 2023 US Federal Emergency Management Agency heat wave risk index (HWRI), a marker of extreme heat event frequency. Counties were grouped by the quartile (Q) of their HWRI. Generalized linear models with a Poisson rate regression were fitted to evaluate the association between CKM aaMR and HWRI quartiles adjusting for county-level median age, percentage of ethnic minorities, prevalence of hypertension, diabetes, obesity, coronary artery disease, and stroke; results were reported as incident rate ratios (IRR) and 95 % confidence intervals. Results: Out of 3243, we included data from 2834 (90 %) counties. The median (25th - 75th percentile) CKM aaMR was 64 (47 -85) 15 deaths per 100 000 residents. The county-level median HWRI was 56.4 (32.0, 78.1). Nationwide, compared to counties in HWRI Q1, those in Q2 [IRR 1.03(0.99, 1.06); Conclusions and Relevance: In the US, counties at more risk to experience extreme heat events were noted to have higher rates of age adjusted cardio-kidney-metabolic syndrome all-cause mortality rates.
