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
backgroundThe uric acid to high density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (UHR) was suggested as a parameter for assessing inflammatory status and insulin resistance, which was closely correlated with coronary artery disease. Nevertheless, the relationship between UHR and coronary slow flow phenomenon (CSFP) remains unexplored.
methodsWe consecutively recruited 1602 patients receiving coronary angiography due to chest pain and found normal coronary arteries, of whom 91 patients developed CSFP (CSFP group, n = 91). A 1:2 sex-and-age matched patients were selected as controls (control group, n = 182). The relationships between UHR and CSFP were explored.
resultsWe observed that CSFP patients had an increased body mass index (BMI), uric acid and UHR, while a lower lever of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) (p < 0.05). In the CSFP patients, right coronary arteries was the most frequently affected vessels, while three coronary arteries involved in CSFP was mostly common seen. We observed that UHR was an independent predictor for CSFP (p < 0.05). In addition, UHR suggested a higher predictive value than uric acid and HDL-C.
conclusionUHR was positively correlated with CSFP. As a novel indicator, UHR provided a superior predictive value for the occurrence of CSFP than single indicators. We suggested that UHR could be used a indicator for the prediction as well as and risk stratification for CSFP patients.
