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

backgroundContemporary trends in cardiovascular disease (CVD) cause-specific mortality by diabetes status are inadequately described. We examined trends by diabetes status in coronary heart disease (CHD), cerebrovascular disease, and heart failure mortality, and mortality rate ratios (people with diabetes versus those without diabetes) across nine high-income jurisdictions.

methodsWe assembled CVD cause-specific mortality data from nine administrative datasets (Europe [n=5], Australia [n=1], Canada [n=2], and South Korea [n=1]), spanning 2000-23. Using Poisson regression, we estimated mortality rates by diabetes status and mortality rate ratios.

findingsThere were 2·92 million CVD deaths over 1·30 billion person-years of follow-up. In all jurisdictions and in both people with and without diabetes, the total CVD and CHD mortality rates fell across the observed time period. The 5-year percent changes in CHD mortality ranged from -11·5% to -32·3%. Reductions in heart failure mortality were smaller than those for CHD mortality (except in Scotland) and smaller than those for cerebrovascular mortality (except in Scotland and Denmark). Heart failure mortality increased in Ontario, Canada. The excess CHD mortality associated with diabetes (mortality rate ratio ~2·0) fell in three of nine jurisdictions and was stable or uncertain in the remainder. No jurisdiction had a fall in excess heart failure mortality associated with diabetes.

interpretationDeclines in heart failure mortality in both people with and without diabetes were less marked than were declines in CHD and cerebrovascular disease mortality in most jurisdictions. Heart failure mortality rate ratios have not decreased. A greater focus on reducing heart failure mortality in people with and without diabetes might be required.
