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

ObjectiveTo investigate the association between the high-sensitivity C-reactive protein-to-hemoglobin ratio and stroke risk among middle-aged and older adults.MethodsA prospective follow-up study was conducted using cohort data from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS) and the English Longitudinal Study of Ageing (ELSA). Participants without a history of stroke at baseline were included, comprising 5368 individuals from CHARLS and 1422 from ELSA. Cox proportional hazards regression models were used to analyze the association between C-reactive protein-to-hemoglobin ratio levels and stroke risk, along with dose-response analyses and subgroup interaction testing.ResultsAfter adjusting for sex, age, lifestyle factors, and multiple clinical biochemical indicators, the participants in Q2, Q3, and Q4 demonstrated a significantly higher risk of stroke than those in Q1 (reference group). The hazard ratios were 2.23 (1.35-3.69), 2.24 (1.36-3.71), and 3.14 (1.93-5.12), respectively (all
