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 adipose tissue surrounding the arterial and venous vasculature and microvasculature affects vascular reactivity and pathology, particularly when perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) accumulates in overweight and obese states. In the absence of convenient techniques to measure local blood flow and adipose tissue volume, perivascular adipose tissue-related alterations are barely considered in clinical settings. Furthermore, perivascular adipose tissue accumulation frequently coexists with obesity, and obesity alone leads to functional and structural vascular alterations. The proximity of epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) to the coronary arteries provides a unique opportunity to study the effects of perivascular adipose tissue on vascular pathology and reactivity. As coronary atherosclerotic plaque inflammation contributes to the inflammatory response of the surrounding adipose tissue, pericoronary adipose tissue attenuation may predict the risk of acute coronary events. Finally, perivascular adipose tissue accumulation may mediate obesity-associated regional subclinical left ventricular dysfunction in the absence of coronary artery disease.
