Admission glucose level and in-hospital outcomes in diabetic and non-diabetic patients with acute myocardial infarction.
Article in Clinical research in cardiology : official journal of the German Cardiac Society, 2010. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 23 papers.
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.
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
backgroundHyperglycemia on admission is a predictor of unfavorable prognosis in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Data concerning associations between elevated glucose level on admission and other in-hospital complications are still limited.
methodsA total of 607 AMI patients with complete admission glucose data in the Krakow Registry of Acute Coronary Syndromes were identified and were stratified according to glucose admission level.
resultsA total of 71.5% of patients were with admission glucose level <7.8 mmol/l, 17.6% of patients with 7.8-11.0 mmol/l, and 10.9% of patients with ≥11.1 mmol/l. In-hospital mortality for patients treated conservatively was higher in patients with higher admission glucose (8.0 vs. 25.0 vs. 39.1%, respectively, P < 0.0001), and significant mortality difference was confirmed both for diabetic and non-diabetic patients. Admission hyperglycemia was associated with increased risk of ventricular tachycardia/ventricular fibrillation, atrial fibrillation, second to third atriventricular block, pulmonary oeadema, but not ischemic stroke and blood transfusion during index hospital stay.
conclusionsElevated admission glucose levels are associated with increased risk of life-threatening complications, especially arrhythmias in diabetic and non-diabetic AMI patients. This increased risk of complications is one of the possible explanations for the elevated in-hospital mortality in AMI patients presenting with hyperglycemia.
