Association of plasma adiponectin with pulmonary hypertension, mortality and heart failure in African Americans: Jackson Heart Study.
Article in Pulmonary circulation. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
backgroundAdiponectin is a polypeptide hormone related to obesity, and a known modulator of pulmonary vascular remodeling. Association between plasma adiponectin levels and pulmonary hypertension (PH) has not been studied in African Americans (AAs) who are disproportionately affected by obesity. The relationship between adiponectin and heart failure (HF) and mortality, outcomes associated with PH, is unclear.
methodsWe performed cross-sectional and longitudinal analysis to examine if there is an association between plasma adiponectin and PH and associated clinical outcomes, in participants of Jackson Heart Study (JHS). JHS is a prospective observational cohort study of heart disease in AAs from Jackson, Mississippi.
resultsOf the 3161 participants included in the study, mean age (SD) was 56.38 (12.61) years, 1028 were men (32.5%), and mean (SD) BMI was 31.42 (7.05) kg/m
conclusionsElevated plasma adiponectin levels are associated with PH, HF admissions and mortality risk in AAs. High adiponectin levels may help identify an at-risk population that could be evaluated for targeted prevention and management strategies in future studies.
