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

The roll out of the primary percutaneous coronary intervention pathway as the default treatment for patients with ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) across the NHS has led to a paradigm shift in the model of care resulting in a significant improvement in mortality. In comparison, a similar care plan does not exist for non-ST elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTE-ACS) despite the fact that patients presenting with high-risk non-STEMI carry a similar if not higher mortality at six months in comparison to STEMI. In this article we focus on the contemporary management of NSTE-ACS in the NHS and also look at some of the dedicated pathways already developed and implemented successfully in expediting treatment and decreasing hospital stay without compromising the safety of patients.
