Constituent country inequalities in myocardial infarction incidence and case fatality in men and women in the United Kingdom, 1996-2005.
Article in Journal of public health (Oxford, England), 2011. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundUnderstanding myocardial infarction (MI) incidence and case fatality trends across the four UK constituent countries is of importance following devolution of the government of health-care services.
methodsRetrospective cohort study using a primary care database (5.19 million patients) examining trends in incidence of first MI and 30-day case fatality.
resultsFrom 1996 to 2005, the incidence of MI decreased in all countries, but reductions were greater in England (men, -3.1%; women, -2.8%) and Wales (men, -3.3%; women, -4.6%) than in Scotland (men, -1.9%; women, -0.6%) and Northern Ireland (men no change, women, -0.8%) (average annual percentage change). Greater reductions in England and Wales than Scotland and Northern Ireland meant a widening of north-south difference in MI incidence over the study period. Downward trends in 30-day case fatality were found in each country but less regional variation was evident (England men, -12.0%, women, -11.0%; Wales men, -18.4%, women, -12.6%; Scotland men, -9.5%, women, -9.0%; Northern Ireland men, -8.6%, women, -13.0%).
conclusionFrom 1996 to 2005, downward trends in the incidence of first MI and 30-day case fatality were evident in each constituent country. Greater improvements in case fatality, compared with incidence, were found within each country.
