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: Soluble suppression of tumorigenicity 2 (sST2), a member of the interleukin-1 receptor family, binds IL-33, preventing its interaction with membrane-bound form ST2 (ST2L), thereby blocking its protection against atherosclerosis. High-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), a variety of lipoproteins with mean size of 8-10 nm and density of 1.063-1.21 g/mL, not only acts as lipid transporters that transport cholesterol reversely, but also carries a variety of proteins and microRNAs endowing it with the ability to prevent cardiovascular disease. Most studies on the relationship between sST2 and coronary heart disease (CHD) are limited to acute myocardial infarction (AMI). The present study set out to investigate the association between the sST2/HDL-C ratio and angina pectoris. Methods: A retrospective single-center cohort study was conducted and a total of 250 patients with chest pain that formed a convenience series, hospitalized between January 2018 and August 2020, were enrolled. Patients with AMI, acute and chronic heart failure, structural heart disease, renal insufficiency [estimate glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) <60 mL/min/1.73 m Results: Patients with stable angina pectoris (SAP) or unstable angina pectoris (UAP) accounted for a larger proportion (28.8% Conclusions: A higher ratio of sST2/HDL-C was associated with an increased risk of angina pectoris. sST2/HDL-C combined with CHD risk factors showed increased diagnostic value in identifying angina pectoris. Trial Registration: Clinical trial: ChiCTR-DDD-17013908.
