Utilizing Clinical and Non-clinical Patient Factors in Predicting Cardiovascular Events in Patients on JAK Inhibitor Therapy: A Retrospective Cohort Study.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundPatients with autoimmune rheumatic diseases (ARDs) taking JAK inhibitors may have an increased risk of cardiovascular events, especially if they have other health conditions. Identifying high-risk patients can inform targeted preventive care. This study assessed the value of age and deprivation decile in predicting cardiovascular events in patients on JAK inhibitors for ARDs.
objectiveTo assess the predictive value of age and deprivation decile in identifying patients at risk of cardiovascular events while on JAK inhibitor therapy for ARDs.
methodsThis cross-sectional cohort study enrolled 309 patients with ARDs (mean age 59.3 years, 77% female) treated with JAK inhibitors at a UK teaching hospital. Baseline characteristics, including age, gender, ethnicity, and comorbidities, were collected. Cardiovascular events (myocardial infarctions, strokes, and cardiovascular-related deaths) that occurred while on JAK inhibitor therapy were identified retrospectively. Deprivation indices were calculated using socioeconomic factors.
resultsMultivariate logistic regression analysis, adjusting for potential confounders, showed that a model combining age and deprivation decile was statistically significant (p = 0.031) in predicting cardiovascular events. Neither age nor deprivation decile alone was statistically significant. Older patients had an odds ratio of 1.06 (95% CI: 1.00-1.13) for increased risk of cardiovascular events. The logistic regression model as a whole was statistically significant (Chi2(14) = 24.04, p = 0.031, n = 309). The AUC of the ROC curve was 0.837.
conclusionAge and deprivation decile can effectively predict cardiovascular events in patients on JAK inhibitor therapy for ARDs. Incorporating these predictive tools into routine clinical practice can help identify patients who warrant intensified cardiovascular risk management.
