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

backgroundThe relationship among plasma brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), markers of extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling, and left ventricular (LV) dilation after reperfused acute myocardial infarction is poorly known. METHODS AND

resultsEchocardiogram, plasma BNP, and ECM degradation markers (serum amino-terminal telopeptide of type I procollagen and type III procollagen and carboxy-terminal telopeptide of type I procollagen [ICTP]) were evaluated in 34 patients at days 1, 3, and 30 after first reperfused acute myocardial infarction. At 1 month, infarct size and severity and LV volume were measured by sestamibi gated single photon emission computed tomography. Patients were stratified according to day 3 BNP levels into 2 groups: group 1 (n = 17) had BNP values over the median value, and group 2 (n = 17) had BNP values under the median value. Infarct size and severity were similar in the 2 groups. LV volumes increased in group 1 but decreased in group 2 (P < .01). BNP values, LV volume/mass index, and infarct size were independent predictors of 1-month LV dilation (beta = .58 [P = .001], beta = .41 [P = .01], and beta = .32 [P = .03], respectively). Levels of serum amino-terminal propeptide of type I procollagen and type III procollagen were similar in both groups. The level of ICTP increased significantly in group 1 only, and after 3 days, it was higher (P < .01) than in group 2. In group 1 ICTP significantly interacted with the relationship between BNP release and serial changes in LV volumes (F = 4.87, P = .03).

conclusionsICTP is related to elevated BNP level independently of infarct size and severity and interacts with the relationship between BNP and LV dilation. BNP levels could play a role in LV remodeling by favoring ECM degradation.
