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

backgroundAspirin resistance may increase up to more then threefold the risk of major cardiovascular events (MACE) in patients with stable coronary artery disease.

aimThe aim of our study was to determine; the prevalence of aspirin resistance in patients with acute coronary syndromes, the role of aspirin resistance on outcome in the follow-up and the effect of clopidogrel therapy in the prevention of MACE in aspirin resistant subjects. MATERIAL AND

methodsWe detected the prevelance of aspirin resistance in 105 patients with acute coronary syndrome. Platelet functions were analyzed in Platelet Function Analyzer (PFA)-100 (Dade Behring, Germany) with collagen and/or epinephrine (Col/Epi) and collagen and/or ADP (Col/ADP) cartridges. Primary end points of the study were myocardial infarction, unstable angina, cardiac death.

results19% (n = 20) of patients were aspirin resistant by PFA-100. In the follow-up, MACE occured in 9 patients (45%) with aspirin resistance and in 10 patients (11.7%) with aspirin sensitive platelet aggregation (p = 0.001). Multivariate analysis showed that aspirin resistance was an independant predictor of MACE. The prevalence of MACE in patients who were on clopidogrel treatment for 12 months were lower compared to those who were on a clopidogrel treatment for the first six months (p = 0.040).

conclusionsWe determined that the MACE risk in patients with acute coronary syndromes having detected aspirin resistance, was higher at statistically significant levels compared to patients having aspirin sensitive platelet aggregation. Our results showed that aspirin resistance, was an independant predictor of MACE in patients with acute coronary syndrome.
