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: Little is known about inequalities in prognosis of heart failure (HF) and pulmonary heart disease (PHD) in low-income and middle-income countries. The aims of this study were to compare hospitalisation and mortality rates between HF and PHD cases in Chinese adults. Methods: In a prospective study of 512 724 adults from 10 areas in China Kadoorie Biobank enrolled in 2004-2008, data on first hospitalisations were obtained by linkage to hospitalisation and death registers. Outcomes included 28-day case-fatality ratio (CFR), 5-year cumulative mortality risks (CMR) and 5-year recurrent hospitalisations following first hospital admissions with HF or PHD. Results: Among first incident hospitalisations with HF (n=7461) and PHD (n=5925), the hospitalisation rates (95% CI) for HF were 125 (122 to 128) and PHD were 99 (96 to 101) per 10 Conclusions: Half of all first HF and three-quarters of first PHD cases died within 5 years, highlighting the urgent need to improve treatment for HF and PHD cases in China.
