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: Ischemic heart disease (IHD) and ischemic stroke (IS) remain leading causes of death and disability, with substantial geographic and sociodemographic inequalities. We assessed long-term trends, sociodemographic index (SDI) disparities, COVID-19-period inflections, risk-factor profiles, and scenario forecasts using Global Burden of Disease (GBD) 2023 estimates. Methods: Using GBD 2023 data (1990-2023), we analyzed age-standardized incidence (ASIR), death (ASDR), and DALY rates (ASDALY) globally and across SDI quintiles. COVID-19 impacts were evaluated using segmented log-linear models (2010-2019 vs. 2020-2023), estimating the average annual percent change (AAPC) and counterfactual deviations extrapolating pre-COVID trends. Risk attribution used the GBD comparative risk assessment framework. ARIMA-based forecasts projected global ASDR/ASDALY to 2035, with S1 fitted to 2010-2019 and S2 to 2010-2023; 1990-start forecasts were assessed as sensitivity analyses. Results: In 2023, ASDRs varied widely across countries (IHD 24.9-441.0; IS 6.0-182.5 per 100,000). From 1990 to 2023, global ASDR declined for both diseases (IHD -38.2%; IS -53.1%), with an IHD SDI reversal (high SDI -52.8% vs. low SDI +13.4%). During 2020-2023, IHD mortality plateaued (AAPC 0.06%/year), whereas IS continued to decline but slowed (AAPC -1.48%/year). Forecasts to 2035 indicated a higher projected burden under S2 than S1. Conclusions: Progress in IHD and IS burden has been uneven, with widening SDI disparities and pandemic-era attenuation, underscoring the need for equitable and resilient prevention and care.
