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

Background: Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the leading cause of death worldwide. Among women, CAD is often underestimated, resulting in underdiagnosis and undertreatment. This study aimed to assess the prevalence of CAD and its risk factors in adult women, using data from the Tehran Cohort Study (TeCS). Methods: We analyzed data from 4478 women with complete CAD information collected during the TeCS recruitment phase. The age-weighted prevalence of CAD was estimated using the 2016 national census data and previous CAD diagnoses. Logistic regression models were applied to identify factors independently associated with CAD in women. Results: The overall prevalence of CAD was 4.48% (mean age: 53.0 ± 12.37 years), with an age-weighted prevalence of 4.1% (95% CI: 3.1%-5.4%). Increasing age was strongly associated with CAD, with women aged ≥ 75 years showing markedly higher odds (OR: 11.94, 95% CI: 3.93-36.31, Conclusion: The prevalence of CAD and its associated risk factors among women in Tehran is substantial. These findings highlight the need for targeted preventive strategies to reduce CAD incidence in vulnerable female populations.
