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

The magnesium depletion score (MDS) is considered a new valuable predictor of body magnesium status. This study aimed to explore the association between MDS and PAD among participants aged ≥ 40 years on the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey in 1999-2004. Survey-weighted multivariable logistic regression and restricted cubic spline models were used to assess the association between MDS and PAD. Survey-weighted multivariable logistic regression showed a significant positive association between MDS and the prevalence of PAD. For each unit increase in MDS, the risk of PAD increased by 24%. Compared to individuals with MDS = 0, those with MDS ≥ 3 had a 95% higher risk of PAD. Restricted triple spline analysis showed a linear dose-response relationship between MDS and PAD risk. Subgroup analysis indicated that this positive association was stronger in individuals aged > 60 years. Numerous future longitudinal cohort studies are required to validate our findings.
