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

backgroundCardiovascular-kidney-metabolic syndrome reflects the complex interplay between metabolic risk factors, cardiovascular and chronic kidney disease. Differences in disease burden by demographics, social determinants of health, and mortality are not well characterized.

methodsData from adults who completed the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey between 2011 and 2018 were used to estimate age-adjusted prevalence and 95% confidence intervals (CI) for cardiovascular-kidney-metabolic syndrome stages. Joinpoint regression was used to identify linear trends. Kaplan-Meier curves were used to examine all-cause mortality risk by stages.

resultsAmong 8474 adults in the study, the median age was 46.8 years, 49.1% were male, and 65.0% were non-Hispanic White. Age-adjusted prevalence of stages 0-4 were 11.2%, 28.1%, 47.4%, 5.3%, and 8.1%, respectively. The highest proportion of stage 4 was among adults aged ≥60 years, males, and non-Hispanic Black individuals. The advanced stages 3-4 were associated with lower educational attainment, income, and employment and higher mortality with a crude death rate of 188.8 per 1000 person-years.

conclusionApproximately 13% of adults were in advanced stages, which disproportionately affect non-Hispanic Black adults and increased over time. These results provide a roadmap for targeted intervention strategies.
