Clinical Significance of Postinfarct Fever in ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction: A Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging Study.
Article in Journal of the American Heart Association, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
backgroundLittle is known about causality and pathological mechanism underlying association of postinfarct fever with myocardial injury in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction. METHODS AND
resultsIn 276 patients undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention for ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction, cardiac magnetic resonance imaging was performed a median of 3.4 days after the index procedure. Forty-five patients had postinfarct fever (peak body temperature within 4 days after primary percutaneous coronary intervention ≥37.7°C; Fever group) whereas 231 did not (no-Fever group). Primary outcome was myocardial infarct size as assessed by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging. Secondary outcomes were extent of area at risk, myocardial salvage index, and microvascular obstruction area. In cardiac magnetic resonance imaging analysis, myocardial infarct size (25.6% [19.7-32.4] in the Fever group versus 17.2% [11.8-25.4] in the no-Fever group;
conclusionsPostinfarct fever could predict advanced myocardial injury and less salvaged myocardium in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction patients undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention.
