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

backgroundEarly diagnosis and therapeutic intervention can improve the outcome of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). However, there are no satisfactory cardiac biomarkers for the diagnosis of AMI within 6 hours of onset of symptoms. Among novel biochemical markers of AMI, heart-type fatty acid binding protein (H-FABP) is of particular interest.

aimTo compare the diagnostic value of H-FABP with that of CK-MB and myoglobin in suspected AMI patients within first 6 hours after the onset of symptoms. SETTINGS AND

designThe study includes 40 AMI cases and 40 non-cardiac chest pain otherwise healthy controls. The cases and controls were further divided into 2 groups depending on the time since chest pain as those subjects within 3 hours and those between 3-6 hours of onset of chest pain. MATERIALS AND

methodsIn all the cases and controls, serum H-FABP, CK-MB and myoglobin concentrations were measured by Immunoturbidimetric method, immuno-inhibition method and Chemiluminescence immunoassay respectively. STATISTICAL ANALYSIS: Data is presented as mean ± SD values. Differences between means of two groups were assessed by Student t-test. Sensitivity, Specificity, Positive predictive value, Negative predictive values were calculated and ROC curve analysis was done to assess the diagnostic validity of each study parameter.

resultsThe sensitivity, specificity, PPV, NPV of H-FABP were greater than CK-MB and myoglobin and ROC curve analysis demonstrated highest area under curve for H-FABP followed by myoglobin and CK-MB in patients with suspected AMI both within 3 hours and 3-6 hours after the onset of chest pain.

conclusionThe diagnostic efficiency of H-FABP is greater than CK-MB and myoglobin for the early diagnosis of AMI within first 6 hours of chest pain. H-FABP can be used as an additional diagnostic tool for the early diagnosis of AMI.
