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

In addition to the market launch of heated tobacco products (HTPs) and the JUUL as well as the EVALI, they caused a widespread discussion on the risk reduction compared to a combustible cigarette. Furthermore, first data showed harmful effects on the cardiovascular system. We, therefore, conducted investigations including a control group with a nicotine-free liquid. Forty active smokers were studied in two different approaches during and after consuming an HTP, a cigarette, a JUUL, or a typical electronic cigarette with or without nicotine in a partly double-blinded randomised, cross-over trial. Inflammation, endothelial dysfunction, and blood samples (full blood count, ELISA, multiplex immunoassay) were analysed, and arterial stiffness was measured. In addition to the cigarette, an increase in the white blood cell count but also in proinflammatory cytokines was shown for the various nicotine delivery systems. These correlated with the parameters of arterial vascular stiffness as a clinical parameter of endothelial dysfunction. It can be shown that even a single consumption of the different nicotine delivery system or cigarette leads to a significant inflammatory reaction followed by endothelial dysfunction and increased arterial stiffness causing cardiovascular disease. Inflammation, endothelial dysfunction, and arterial stiffness should be addressed in long-term observational studies.
