Association between serum urate level and carotid atherosclerosis: an insight from a post hoc analysis of the PRIZE randomised clinical trial.
Trial report in RMD open, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
objectivesElevated serum urate (SU) levels are associated with arterial atherosclerosis and subsequent cardiovascular events. However, an optimal therapeutic target SU level for delaying atherosclerotic progression in patients with hyperuricaemia remains uncertain. The aim of this analysis was to assess an association between changes in SU level and carotid intima-media thickness (IMT) to examine whether an optimal SU concentration exists to delay atherosclerotic progression.
methodsThis was a post hoc analysis of the PRIZE (programme of vascular evaluation under uric acid control by xanthine oxidase inhibitor, febuxostat: multicentre, randomised controlled) study of Japanese adults with asymptomatic hyperuricaemia. The primary endpoint of this analysis was an association between changes in SU levels and mean common carotid artery IMT (CCA-IMT) after 24 months of febuxostat treatment.
resultsAmong subjects treated with febuxostat (n=239), a total of 204 who had both data on SU and mean CCA-IMT at baseline and 24 months were included in this analysis. The mean baseline SU level was 7.7±1.0 mg/dL, and febuxostat treatment significantly reduced SU concentrations at 24 months (estimated mean change ‒3.051 mg/dL, 95% CI ‒3.221 to ‒2.882). A multivariable linear regression analysis revealed that a reduction in SU level was associated with changes in mean CCA-IMT values at 24 months (p=0.025). In contrast, the achieved SU concentrations were not associated with changes in mean CCA-IMT at 24 months.
conclusionA greater reduction in SU, but not its achieved concentrations, may be associated with delayed progression of carotid IMT in patients with asymptomatic hyperuricaemia treated with febuxostat. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: UMIN000012911.
