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

backgroundPlatelet aggregation monitoring in diabetic patients treated with coronary interventions (PCI) for an acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is a promising way of optimizing treatment and outcomes in this high risk group. The aim of the study was to verify whether clopidogrel response measured by Multiplate analyzer (ADPtest) in diabetic ACS patients treated with PCI predicts the risk of stent thrombosis or cardiovascular mortality and bleeding.

methodsInto this prospective, observational study 206 elective PCI patients were enrolled. Two cutoff points of ADPtest were used in analysis to divide patients into groups. One (345 AU x min) was calculated based on ROC curve analysis; this cutoff provided the best ROC curve fit, although it did not reach statistical significance. The other (468 AU x min) was accepted based on the consensus of the Working Group on On-Treatment Platelet Reactivity. The risk of stent thrombosis and mortality was assessed using Cox regression analysis and Kaplan-Meier curves.

resultsThe risk of stent thrombosis was higher in the group of patients with impaired clopidogrel response for either cutoff value (for >354 AU x min - HR 12.33; 95% CI 2.49-61.1; P = 0.002). Cardiovascular mortality was also higher in the impaired clopidogrel response group (for >354 AU x min - HR 10.58; 95% CI 2.05-54.58; P = 0.005). We did not find a clear relation of increased clopidogrel response to the risk of bleeding.

conclusionsThe results of this study show that in diabetic ACS patient group treated with PCI an impaired platelet response to clopidogrel measured by the Multiplate analyzer results in increased risk of stent thrombosis and cardiac death.
