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

Background: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) develops in men earlier in life but CVD women have a higher risk of cardiovascular mortality than CVD men. In addition, co-occurrence with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) increases CVD risk. We aimed to evaluate sex differences in endotoxemia and trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO) plasma levels, in co-occurrence with T2DM in coronary heart disease (CHD) patients, and their potential sex-specific modulation by the consumption of healthy diets. Methods: This study was carried out within the framework of the CORDIOPREV study, a clinical trial which included 1,002 (827 men and 175 women) with CHD, of whom 462 had no T2DM, 350 had T2DM, and 190 were newly diagnosed with T2DM at recruitment. Plasma lipopolysaccharide (LPS) was measured by LAL colorimetric assay and TMAO by HPLC. Intima-media thickness of both common carotid arteries (IMT-CC) and carotid plaques were assessed ultrasonically. Results: LPS and TMAO plasma levels were lower in CHD non-T2DM women than CHD non-T2DM men (both, Conclusions: Our results suggest that the sex differences in CHD patients are influenced by the presence of T2DM. Moreover, our results also suggest that the cardiovascular risk associated to T2DM, in co-occurrence with CVD, is higher in women than in men.
